    Following this thread for any new updates. We are trying to generate a simple pull list.

  • Thank you to everyone who let me know about the 24p issue. Yes, when I changed the comp to 60 it looked much better, though I also had to slow it down a bit. Our show is 24p in production but will be seen on tv and online, so now we’re figuring out how to finish it to use in the final.

  • Answering my own question in case anyone else needs this info. The ‘General’ settings in the project settings menu need to specify ‘frames’ instead of time code AND the clip needs to be modified to ‘frames’ in its bin. Then cut back in. So… if you need frames in an edl or other list export, you need to cut in frames from the source.

    Or so it seems. When we modified the clips and cut them back in (argh!) we got an edl with frames instead of time code.

    This is animation and jpgs are the accepted format for the images. They are drawn in photoshop ‘flattened’ to jpgs and we import them.

    This has been the method used for at least the two decades I’ve worked in animation. Hasn’t ever been an issue.

    And if anyone is interested in this thread, I want to add that I found changing the codec to Pro Res made a difference in the playback too.

    Wow, thanks. I will pass on that request to the techs. We’ve been having all kinds of issues.

    Yes, the tech dept has set it up so I can’t run the disk utilities on my own. I tried. The drive has almost 80 percent free space now that I’ve cleaned but the fix came when they ran the verify permissions. Fixed EVERYTHING immediately.

    Old software, old computer…. its making ME old.

    Sadly, I don’t have admin id or passwords and so I can’t run the utilities myself. The techs aren’t responding to my requests to do so. I may have to call in the big guns to get it done. Boot drive is very full, you are correct.

    When I first arrived I got the tech to run disc utilities because we were having many problems. That was two months ago. Things ran fine for a while after that. How often should one run it?

  • Hey, I see this answer was submitted years ago and never answered, but I am having the exact same problem here and wondered if anyone ever answered you or if you did finally solve the problem.
