I am extremely confused. I just switched over to Resolve 12.5 STUDIO, and I can’t seem to import stills. In the Gallery Window, If I right-click in an album, and select “import”, it does not allow me to select an image type from a drop down menu any more, and the reference jpegs I want to import remain “Greyed out.”

Per Marc’s suggestion, I brought the reference image folder in via the Media Tab, so they are now technically part of my project, but I still can’t load them up as Gallery Stills.

Is this a bug of Resolve 12.5 Studio? Or Am I missing something…?

Bingo! Joseph’s reply was the solution for me.

I was trying to import a .DRP – which I exported from a project in Resolve 12 “Lite” – into Resolve Studio, but nothing was happening once I selected File>Import>.DPR. Very confusing and frustrating that it wouldn’t simply open the project I’d just imported.

The solution was to go back “out” to the Home Screen. Viola, the project was in the library waiting for me.

Angelo you are a genius. This ended up being EXACTLY the trick I needed. Shame it’s not more apparent in documentation for either app for how to go back to raw-camera ONLINE from OFFLINE proxies. So THANK YOU.

I might help clarify Angelo’s workflow with just one note: in step 3, after you select your File>Import>TopLevelMediaFolder, REDCINE automatically then prompts you to import your XML file by popping up a new import window —- at first I was confused and thought these would be separate steps, but REDCINE is smart enough to automatically open a new import window after your media comes in. Also: in step 5, i found selecting “Final Cut XML for Pr” worked best for me.

In case anyone else runs in to this, I WAS experiencing a bug that caused Premiere to crash every time I tried Angelo’s workflow. I have now resolved that as well. Allow me to explain.

RUNNING: Premiere CC 2014
REDCINE-X Pro build 33.1

PROBLEM: Premiere would crash after I imported the new XML from REDCINE. I followed all of Angelo’s steps to the T .
The issue, however, came once I imported the new XML into Premiere. I’d go File>Import and select my new XML from REDCINE. It would correctly import my XML as a folder (presumable containing clips and a sequence). However, when I would double-click the Folder (it defaulted to Icon View in the Project Panel), BAM!! Premiere would crash immediately. Tried this multiple times, same results. What gives?

SOLUTION: I found that, for whatever reason, trying to open the imported folder (via XML) when in Icon View is what caused the crash. As soon as I switched to LIST VIEW BEFORE selecting my folder in Icon View, I was able to use the carrot drop-down to see all my clips and sequence from the XML. I would immediately then copy those items out into the root level of the Project Panel as to avoid any issues with that buggy folder. Hope this helps anyone who runs into this. I’m guessing it’s probably unique to this Premiere build so hopefully it resolves in the next update.

Ha, weird! As I went online to browse around for solutions, I left my problem project open. After about 10 minutes, I noticed the clips in my timeline loaded… and they now play back fine! So weird. My only guess is that Premiere CC was caching/indexing some clips in the background and it took a longer time than normal. Either way, all seems to be good again on my end.

[Blake Hodges]

Having the same issue! Hope the thread gets bumped and a solution is found.

I am experiencing this problem with Compound clips (how I sync audio and video clips in FCPX). FCPX 10.1.2 & Davinci 11. Massively annoying.
