We are in the middle of a similar project at the moment. A 23.98 FCP project using DVCam 29.97 downconverts of the HDcam masters.
I received an Automatic Duck export and an EDL(Cinema Tools) from the FCP off-line which I imported into my 23.98 HD Axio project. The Automatic Duck does not work but the EDL is solid in Premiere2. Neither worked in Premiere-1.5.1
I have been back and forth with Wes at the Duck over the last few days to see if this can be fixed. There is no Automatic Duck export from Premiere at this time.
I have imported the FCP EDL into Premiere2 and exported it again and they are the same so at this point EDL works from Premiere to FCP
I haven’t tried AAF from Premiere.Ken Adolph

The feature we are working on has a lot of CGI and FX.
Our workflow is to capture the HDcam FX shots at full rez and then export them thru Cleaner to mpeg4 for off-line FX work. The full rez is brought back into 3dsMax and Combustion for the final cleanup and composite.
We can’t get the Matrox off-line HD codec to work in Cleaner.
Maybe next time.Ken Adolph

From this message you seem to have found a way to export all your HD captures to the offline codec or are you exporting each clip separately?

This “double system” is a problem with Premiere. The only way to sync the clips and keep them synced is the way that David has indicated unless someone has a better idea.
The other factor is that the files recorded with the Soound Design or Fostex are recorded in Broadcast Wave format which means that it includes the TC in the metadata. Unless things have changed in PPro2 or Audition2 both these applications are without BWF support. Typically the TC is jammed from the audio recorder to the camera so they are both showing the same TC. This makes it easy to sync but you can’t lock the audio to the picture. If you could then the trimming of projects would work.
This is very important in documentary and feature work and Axio is not going to help except if you capture all your footage at on-line resolution in the first place.Ken Adolph

We use the Duck all the time to import Avid and FCP projects into PPro. It works great except that 23.98 is not supported at this time. However, you can’t go the other way unless you use an EDL.

23.98 edls will not import properly into PPro 1.5
I sure hope this works in PPro2
We have this issue with an HDcam feature we are posting that was edited in FCPKen Adolph

Your footage in the 16:9 project is anamorphic so it shows up “tall and skinny” on a 4:3 TV. Just create a new sequence in your 16:9 project and import the original sequence into this sequence. Then scale the new sequence to 77 vertically and you will have a letterbox output.

Is your music mp3?
If it is I have seen this before. Convert to .wav and it should fix it unless there is something wrong with the file.Ken Adolph
