Same issue when I up graded to 8.1

See Avid thread

Other are having also. No response from Avid yet. Only fix I have seen is to go back to 8 or 7.0.4

Shane… I’m testing the music ID now. AMA ing and transcoding all the MP3 from the entire Music Collective Library. It’s pretty nifty to have all the medadata. Grab me on Monday and I’ll show you what I have managed to get in so far. I’m not to concerned about mp3 quality verse Wave BWF. For what we do by the time its mixed compressed sent to satellite and broadcast. No one will here the difference.

I talked directly to the guys that do the sequence clip reports for FCpro and begged them to make an avid version but they just are not going to do it.

One work around I found was
Export AAF. Bring AAF into Catdv pegasus and you can print a report from there. But the downside with all those workflows – autoducking into Final Cut…AAF to resolve is 3rd party’s recognizing the effects we use

🙁

Sometime before I retire someone with programming skills will understand that the need to report footage usage is broadcast wide for anything that airs.

I know the concern is who will pay but If I’m the money bags and I usually am I would rather an AE print a report in ten minutes then a AP spend weeks making them.

I can’t remember off hand the 25 dnx codecs but I shoot 23.98 all the time.

I used to do 5d at dnx 36 (all though most people would saw 36 is an offline resolution I say bumping vhs to digibeta just isn’t going to make it look better) now I tend to favor xdcam codec through the avid.

Raw I would do at DNX 175 or the 25 equivalent

you don’t need to use the Utility for anything just have it installed.

Download Canon’s XF Utility from their website. Have it on any computer doing the AMA links as well as the Canon XF AMA plug in. For some reason this resolves a lot of the linking issues.

Also, After a year and many series done on Canon 300 offlining at proxy resolution and trying to link back to AMA for Hi rez. I suggest

AMA link to card
Consolidate to Avid drive
Transcode to offline
Link back to consolidated media not AMA linked media.

Just works better with avid managed media. Keeps it as Canon C300 mfx op-atom but manages it like avid media.

thanks…

Tried Flicker fixer. Was the first thing I did. not much happened.

I’ll look at the other one. Think I have a demo installed…

[Greg Cohan]

Thanks that helps…. Ironically I guess I could have crossed the hall and asked you Shane 🙂

[Greg Cohan]

Yeah…
Settings are the same as we have always done this. Using the same decks as we did in 5.5 with the same settings…

It gets the first clip right but if there is a tc break any clip after that is not on an A frame goes in Jittery.
