    Posted by Megan Pollin on May 4, 2013 at 12:00 am

    I just finished cutting a project shot in 5K on the Red Epic in Media Composer 6. I made DNxHD 36 proxies in Red CineX Pro and they all linked up fine in Avid.

    However, now I need to send the project to resolve, but Resolve won’t recognize any AAFs (used “link to media”).

    Wondering what’s causing this and if there’s a way to work around it. Thanks!

    What do you mean “doesn’t recognize?”

    Rejects AAF
    AAF does not link to MXF media
    AAF does not link to original R3D?

    When you look at your master clips in Media Composer as created from RCX, what does it say in the TAPE column for the clips? Is it the entire 16 characters of the original filename?

    Have you tried an EDL rather than AAF?

    Hello Megan,

    Have a look at the Resolve manual on AAF workflow for import and export steps, it is really useful.

    Are you getting a conformed timeline with all media offline?

    I had an issue with REDcine 17 exporting ProRes Quicktimes with camera timecode breaking 1/3 of the through the file. This meant the Resolve conform was impossible with the AAF or XML. The timeline would be built, but all media was offline. I had to re-export my offline (used master timeline in Resolve this time) reconnect media in NLE and re-export AAF or XML.

    I was using EPIC 5K footage at 25 frames. REDcine 17.3 looks to have fixed the issue.

    I hope this helps?

    Cheers,
    Robert
