  • Merged clips won’t reconnect on import

    Posted by Scott Simmons on July 13, 2006 at 10:20 pm

    I have a film project that was shot with with seperate sound. I have gone in and make subclips of all takes in the film transfer and aif audio file. I have then merged each clip using IN points and made a cut using them. yesterday I exported the whole project as an xml and passed the project to another editor. Importing that xml gives me what looks like the proper clips but the merged clips won’t reconnect to the audio properly. And it also looks like all the ‘merged’ clips have changed from their original lengths (12 secs, 30 secs) to long durations of 48 minutes, 1:09:00… the full lengths of my master clips. Something has gone awry with these merged clips. Can’t find much in the archives… anyone seen and fixed any issues with reconnecting merged clips? I’ve posted 2 variations of this issue in the apple forums but no replies at all. Thanks for any info
