  • Importing aaf file from AVID

    Trying to bring an AAF file into premier. Two problems.

    All the footage is 720p 24 raster is 960×720 with a pixel aspect of 1.333. Avid shows the frames correctly but when the AAF is imported to premier the clips go to a 1.0 pixel aspect and thus look squeezed on the premier time line. Lookng at the folder holding the clips, each clip says “1280×720(1.0) in the video info column but if you look in clip properties it lists them as 960×720 with a pixel aspect of 1.333. what is the fix for this?

    secondly some of the audio plays and some doesn’t in fact some clips play for a bit, then go silient. (and on the time line they go from solid green to green hash. WITHIN THE CLIP. There are no audio effects or adjustments on the avid time line.

    Avid is MC 6.0
    Premier is cc

    Try to right click clips in the premiere “bin” and ” interpret footage” to correct aspect.
    Not playing sound may be because premiere is analyzing it.
