  • Importing BMD footage into AE7 crashes it

    Posted by John Baum on February 8, 2006 at 7:32 pm

    I have alot of footage and projects done with AE6.4 and PPRo 1.5. The old projects crash AE7 when opening and so does any previously captured footage brought into a new project. Others in this forum have mentioned this problem with no response here.
    I need a fix for this fast.

    Just checked and footage captured in PPro2 also has the same result.

    It would appear to be the 8bit AVI codec that is the culprit. Files captured with the Decklink capture program which uses Quicktime are fine, as are 10bit AVIs captured in Premiere.

    I noticed a post in the AJA Xena forums about the 8bit AVI codec that premiere captures in being kinda non-standard. Its the same one that is used with BM cards. Its some kind of UYVY codec.

    hi ghobbi
    I’am having the same issue.. and yes it doest seem to be the 8bit codec…. Its a shame cause I have alot of 8bit footage captured and realy dont want to re digitize it all:(
    I hope BMD does a fix real soon for that one.

    Kristian, while a dot update is in the works, are there any plans to address the non-responsive scope issue?

    Hi Sean,

    I believe that the scope issue has been resolved. Is this not the case with v5.4.2 of the Windows driver?

    regards

    That did it! Thanks Kristian. It had been about a week since I checked for an update.
