  • Force conform loses in out point

    Posted by Luca Casavola on October 12, 2017 at 8:24 am

    Hi everybody,
    I am conforming by xml a project from Premiere, from r3d files.
    A lot of clips are offline and I discovered they are the clips split from the Red camera into multiple files.
    So first I import them into media pool and try to force conform manually.
    But the file .mov is replaced by 3rd file from the beginning of the 3rd file. It loses the timecode information.
    What is weird is that if I doubleclick on the .mov file in the timeline I can see in the viewer the in and out point.
    But then the force conform does not take into account it.
    I believe there is a problem of mismatch of timecode. Is there something I miss?
    Many thanks
    Luca

    Force conform really only works if the timecodes match. If the timecode doesn’t match, then force conform is just going to force the clip from the first frame. It isn’t going to try to figure out what part of the clip you want to use.
    If you want to do in and out points, just use the edit button.

    Finally I changed the conform options and manage to get all the files online.
    Thanks
