  • Keyframes Moving after Media Manage

    Posted by Danny Holland on February 21, 2011 at 11:53 pm

    I am running into a strange issue where keyframes are moving or not carrying over from the original sequence to a media managed sequence.

    Any one have any thoughts on this kind of issue?

    Probably has to do with you not creating handles for your Media Managed clips.

    Try again with handles and see if you get better results.

    What ate you trying to do with this media managed sequence exactly?

    Why include master and affiliate?

    John,

    I tied using 1 second handles but ran into the same problem. I am going to try without including Master Clips and Affiliate clips and see how it goes. Keep you posted.

    Here is an example of how there are moving.

    Hi Jeremy,

    Would recommend against including masters and affiliate clips? I have tried using both options and can’t really see any difference.

    Thanks,

    As I asked before, what exactly are you trying to do with the media manager?

    Hi Jeremy,

    The goal of this media manage is to archive the edits and project for putting on LTO tape. I want to keep everything important so if we need to, we can do small tweaks or exports in the future.

    Thanks again for the help,

    Danny

    Then why not save everything? We do.

    If you do just want to save the cut down, then you don’t want the master/affiliate clips.

    Jeremy,

    We bust out a bunch of 2-5 minute edits and would rather not have 200GB per episode. Instead opting for 20GB or so per finished edit.

    I have done some test both including and not including masters and affiliates and still run into an issue where my keyframes are sliding/moving on the media managed sequence.

    Is this possibly an issue with subclips or something strange like that?

    Thanks,

    Danny

    Yes. The media manager can work very well, but when it doesn’t, it sucks. If using LTO 4, you can archive 4 200GB shows per tape for ~$50 US. It’ll save you some grief as well.

    We’ve run into the same problem where I work. It was only under certain situations though and because it was isolated like that it never became an issue with us. I’ll try and dig around tomorrow at work and see if I can recover any useful info for your Danny.
