    I understand how you would have problems with H.264 and Canon XF; those codecs weren’t really designed for editing ease. But MOV wrapped DNxHD is another matter. Is there really any stability issue with that? Not trying to be argumentative, I just want to understand this.

    That’s a good point, I didn’t know about the rental.
    What if you use AMA to edit from the MOV wrapped DNxHD files? I’ve heard AMA editing is slow, but isn’t that because of the codecs? If the footage is already DNxHD, then I don’t see why AMA editing would be any different than editing imported media. But that’s why I’m here asking the Avid experts.

    Mostly I was talking about codecs unsupported in Resolve, e.g. AVCHD and long spanned XDCAM (Resolve doesn’t handle spanning correctly).

    Yes, I’m aware of that. I called it option 4 in my first post. But for some situations Premiere is a better tool than Resolve.

    It actually worked just fine. The media browser recognized the folder as a Canon XF folder, and showed the clips. In one case, it failed to recognize a spanned clip (it showed them as 2 separate clips), but otherwise it worked great.

    I just came across this issue. It is not fixed in 10.1.5.

  • Walter, I hope you’re still watching this old thread! I like your idea of doing the titles in Photoshop, but how do you get them in the right order in Premiere? When I try this, Premier just sorts them by name. That’s fine if you have a small batch, as you can arrange them manually. But I need to subtitle a 5 minute interview, so I’m going to have a few hundred layers. Or can anyone suggest a better way to do this?
    Note: I want burned in subtitles that look nice, not closed captioning.

    I’m glad 7.1 is working for you. But I haven’t had any playback problems so far in 7.2, and it fixed a major bug in my workflow. That is, exporting multiple clips at a time from the bin would produce files with zeroed timecode.

    December 13, 2013 at 1:54 am in reply to: XML wrong sequence

    I have the exact same problem as the OP. I’m running Premiere CC 7.2. I’ve tried both options listed here, but it always exports one sequence, and it’s not the right sequence.
    The sequence it exports is actually used as a nest at one point in the sequence I’m trying to export.
