Did you ever have any success with this? I’m looking to incorporate AAF metadata into a Premiere workflow. Converting any tabled XML into an XMP format (embedded or sidecar) seems to be impossible. Any suggestions appreciated!

Very cool!,
I wish the post-video market was as saturated as the post-audio market. Since DAWs operate on MIDI, it is extremely cheap and easy to design hardware. Take the Korg Nanokontrol for example… 9 faders 9 encoders and 18 buttons for $59!
Imagine if NLEs were powered by MIDI, you could do all sorts of crazy stuff on the cheap!
OxygenTec’s website reads “Strive to popularize”. Maybe that means “hey let’s add some competition to bring the price of trackballs down”

What is the destination for your sequence?
Last time I worked with Long-GOP and had to send a file to Pro Tools for Post Audio, I would perform a video mixdown, and take the lone MXF media file generated from this and the Audio team could natively take it into Pro Tools.
However if you need to do final color outside of Avid, you’ll have less luck.
If you are working natively in XDCAM, I suggest you transcode your sequence (using the Consolidate/Transcode tool) and select DNX115/145 as your destination resolution.
Alternatively you could always export a ProRes422 quicktime or a DNX145 quicktime of your sequence and cut it up in your final color platform, if you absolutely do not need handles! Most final color platforms feature auto-detect edit features which will get you 90% of the way there.
good luck!

Hey there,
There are no GPU customization options in Resolve Lite. Running multiple GPUs is a feature of the full version of Resolve.
Under “GPU Processing Mode” in your preferences ensure you are selecting “Cuda” if you have an NVidia GPU, or “OpenCL” if you are on AMD.
Take a look at pages 11 & 12 in the Resolve 11 “Windows OS System Configurations” guide for specifics for updating the drivers for either NVidia or AMD platforms. An out of date GPU driver most certainly can cause render anomalies.

When processing dailies in general I highly advise you manually check every single slate, as drift will most certainly happen at some level during the course of the Production day.
it’s tedious, but that’s where learning the keyboard shortcuts come in handy.

It depends. Resolve, Premiere, etc. can all debayer on the GPU now with decent results. However you will still see a performance increase with the Rocket installed. If you can spare the PCI lanes, I suggest keeping it in your system.
Even on a NewMacPro with dual D700 GPUs I still use the Rocket (or Rocket-X for Dragon jobs) using a Magma PCI expander. Thunderbolt expanders are not as fast as PCI lanes (x4 speeds for Thunderbolt, x8 speeds for Thunderbolt 2) but there is still a substantial boost in transcoding performance. Generally we’ll get a +40% fps render speed.
If real-time playback is your thing, you’ll be fine without. However since we are in the business of transcoding we find the Rocket is essential for RED jobs.
Best,
Arthur
