If you want to use Resolves tool set, you are going to have to allow it to render the footage out, unless you are doing very basic color, and a cdl would suffice for you.

Thats just the way it is. If you have any other round trip issues, let me know, I’ve been doing round trips to and from Resolve with Avid Ds and Avid Media composer since 2011 or 2012 I think.

What issue do you have with go pro?

I usually run that footage through a program to add proper names and time code before doing anything with it.

It sounds to me like the clips are not syncing maybe the common spot,( time code, in point, what ever you used) was incorrect, so the audio is not lining up with the video…so it is playing back a section before or after the video.

As pat said, posting a sample might be the fastest way to make sure we are all on the same page.

there is a way of coloring on tops and tails as you go.
You can also turn on a function to automatically grade a shot if it is used more than once in a time line…so you could build a timeline with all your shots lined up, turn on view handles, and start coloring the timeline. As you go through, you should start to co.e across shots that are colored, because you’ve already done another version of it.

From there you could colour trace your actual timelines to that big long master timeline.

I use them both…colour I Resolve, Buti still prefer to cuti n Avid.

I always question the need to pick 1 over the other

Use what is best for you for the job at hand

Excellent…I did not know that.

I will have to play, as well to see what pitfalls my workflow will uncover.

Thanks for replying Michael.

When i sent the OpAtom to the premiere editor…yes i only sent files, didn’t even think of an AAF….have to try that, as it might make everything easier.

I also tried the bulk edit in Avid and thought the same thing…this doesn’t do nearly enough. On the surface, I thought it would be perfect, but only for adding characters to the column. Removing them seems undoable at this point.

After some more playing, and trying notepad ++ instead of Notepad and Excel, i was able to do a find/replace on an ALE out of Avid, converting the sync audio to filenames only, so I think i’m getting close, but yes, if only Resolve would give us some column duplicate/copy manipulation, or a proper sound filename column.

Of course if the editor can handle an aaf out of Avid, with opAtom media, then I will be laughing.

Thanks again.

Sounds like a handbrake issue, not a resolve issue. If they are burnt into the video, it doesn’t matter what program you try to play them back in, they should show up. (I’m assuming by “burn in” you mean open captions that cant be turned off”)

With any subtitle issue, i would start by looking at the timecode listed in your SRT file. I know for Youtube to work they need to just start at 0:00, not 01:00. Handbrake might be similar…but you may want to look for a forum on handbrake for assistance.

might want to try a different usb port. Maybe one on the back of the machine as opposed to a front panel port.

Your import or link options in Avid have to be specifically set to include the alpha channel. (Usually reversed alpha, if made with common workflows)

very unlikely just a freeze and a cut would disguise it…depending on the attention of your audience i suppose. Pretty much everyone here would spot it immediately. Its amazing how much an incredibly small change in light or shadow position stands out like a sore thumb when you attempt something like this.

If you want to post a shot, i’d be happy to take a look.
I don’t typically cut in Resolve at all…just colour, but I could try Avid vs Resolve to see what the difference is.
