I second the recommendation of “The Conversations” with Walter Murch. A fascinating read, not to be missed. Murch is the great philospher of film editing. A perhaps more down to earth book is “The Lean Forward Moment” by Norman Hollyn. Lots of great ideas in there.

Thanks Michael!
I’m slowing wrapping my mind around Adobe’s thinking on this (I’m a FCP switcher). It’s good that they let us map not just the target but also the source, so that maybe you can define which audio track goes where. But jeez, couldn’t it just default to the obvious tracks and leave the option to change it rather than forcing us to fiddle with the mouse each and every time? Definitely a feature request.

Thanks Keith,
There is also the preference “Enable Clip and XMP Metadata linking” – what do you think about that one?

Another thing that works is using Adobe media encoder (CS6) to convert the footage to pro res. This also retains the timecode.

Thanks for the response guys. I’m really surprised by this. Premiere CS6 sees the Mark3’s timecode, as does good old quicktime 7.

Yes, you can. Under Custom Controls in the menu, you can assign the SET button to magnify. Much better that way!

Hey Erik,
Thanks for your response. The Pc system in question is my client’s, and no, we haven’t resolved the issue yet. I’m going to have him have a go with your suggestion. I’m hopeful it will work.
Thanks!

April 12, 2012 at 12:50 pm in reply to: Kona LHe, MASSIVE video drift!

The solution for me was to change the output (in audio visual settings) to Kona 8 bit, rather than the 10 bit as used by the default Kona easy setup. This solves the problem for me, and as far as I can tell has no negative effect on image quality. I created custom easy setups so I don’t have to change it every time I change the setup. Hope this helps.

Hi Guys,
I know this is an ancient thread, but I’ve just started having this problem after upgrading to Snow Leopard. I’m working on pro res 1080p30 material and find if I change the video playback (in a/v settings) to Kona 8 bit (from the default 10 bit) it comes back in sync.

If anyone has a solution to this problem I’d love to hear it. A long chat with Aja tech support didn’t resolve it.
Thanks!
