I started out as a film assistant, and while I enjoyed doing it while it lasted, there’s no reason I would ever go back and actually edit film. If I were so inclined, I’d cut on an Avid, and maybe go make a work print for the hell of it. (Depending on length, etc.) Cost would very much be an issue when renting all the stuff you need, and it actually takes a little skill to make a clean splice, sync sound, and use a flatbed.

Yeah, I tried every option in the relink window with no luck. I could just batch the sequences, but I need the source footage as well, unfortunately. Although that may be what I’ll do, I don’t know if I can devote another full day’s work to digitizing hours of footage twice.

Sorry, I should have mentioned that it’s an Adrenaline system as well.

A program called FFMPEGX would be able to do it I think. You can convert video files from a DVD (or pretty much anything) to something more avid friendly.

Thanks, that did the trick. I thought I had to autosync to separate clips.

There’s probably a better way, but I would use superimpose on a video mixdown, but I have no idea how long it would take mixdown a one hour program. That’s what I do with commercials and other shorter fare, at least.

Yeah, I think scratch removal takes the values from the frame prior to the damaged one, so if the dead pixel is in the same place, it can’t be corrected with scratch removal. I guess what I would try is to layer the same image/sequence underneath, shift the whole thing down by a pixel or two, and use the paint effect to expose the second layer underneath.

I usually just ignore them as well, but they annoy me ever so slightly at times. Mainly, I was curious as to how to do it. 🙂

Excellent, thanks so much for the help.

Incorrect patching is often the culprit when I have sound issues… 🙂
