just maybe, if you add/remove the tabs from the underside of the cassette to match those of an sp. We used to do this when putting non sps in sp vts, or was it the other way round???

though you can make changes using modify exporting the bin as an ale and pulling in to xl can be useful for many global changes, find replace etc can be real(reel?) winners for changing/prefixing reel numbers etc etc

Unless you’re working on a piece about clocks/wheels/football all shot perfectly head on then I tend to cheat and not expand the whole way since as the guys say the results are ******, just enough to get away with, landscapes etc are distorted at the lense so…
More so if you’re only using an 8bit dve, also be carefull with framing, mathematical arcing tends to be cruel, usually you’ll need to drop the target down in frame…If you have a proper budget then snell etc make great devices which will arc with far greater quality, though generaly not keyframeable over time.

The least mixdowns etc the better, I prefer a sequence where I’m aware of all joins and transitions, the pan and scan material shouldn’t be a problem, though in this instance you may want to mixdown the segment since the system you’re moving to may well not recognise the pan and scan info unless its an avid family product. Take you’re stills with you as the origional high rez files in case.
The most important rule is to talk to the on-line editor/colorist and check what they’re expecting/ omf/edl/qt/aaf/bin…..

Unless you’ve got some strange sift set up then it sounds wierd, unless someone has inadvertantly moved media files or rename the origional mediafiles folder…do the clips show if you select all projects, or have you pulled some media across from another project?

USE THE HIGHEST REZ POSSIBLE ON IMPORT. RENDER OUT OF AE WITH A COMPRESSION SETTING OF NONE! AVI/QT/TARGA whatever, you can select none as a compression setting!
Or there are avid codecs corresponding to meredian compressed and uncompressed resolutions which you can use within ae when rendering out as avis and qts, presumably there are similar codecs for adrenaline systems which remove a lot of guesswork. -
on what system are you grading
-
as a last resort, try consolidating your seq, or, try a mix down so if it is a drive/bandwidth/speed problem you’ll probably leave your drive heads jumping around not so much.

required i believe to pull in omfs to protools

some codecs seem to mess up the interpolation, try swapping them round..upper, lowr,odd even!/?!?1
