This is low budget…

I’m on a macbook pro 2.8 GHz, 8GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M 512 MB

I did try to create new bins and I got a similar message, it wouldn’t create the bins and gave an invalid argument message.

Since then I got a “segmentation fault” error message and Symphony just crashed and quit on it’s own.

I shut down and gave the drives and system a rest, then started up again; I lost several of the syncs but things seem to be working again for now and I can save the bins… I have a feeling it was something with the drives but really can’t say. I’m just hoping it won’t happen again, so if anyone has any thoughts for prevention I’m all ears…

Thanks for your reply Michael.

[Nicholas Vanvoorthuysen]

Agreed. Thank you for your help Michael.

Ah, I see now, “reel no.” in Resolve becomes “tape name” in Avid. Great.

Funny how it’s really neither a reel nor a tape. Seems to me “reel no.” would be a better one to stick with, ah well. This legacy terminology gets tiresome sometimes 🙂

Yeah I e-mailed the post house and haven’t heard back yet so I am proceeding that way for now because I need to get the dailies out…

I was also told the post house would not be doing the online with AVID, so the media within avid is less important as long as the EDLs and AAFs are proper…

However now I’m having a new problem: when I import the MXFs from Resolve into Avid, it’s not showing the reel #s in the bins… not sure what’s wrong.

[Nicholas Vanvoorthuysen]

Thanks a million Michael. That would have definitely been a problem with the post house, and having just met them, I am really trying to get off on the right foot. I’ve learned a lot over the last few days!

I figured out how to do it from the from the Resolve 9 dailies paper above:

Master Project Settings > Conform Options > check “Assist using reel names from the: > select “Embedding in source clip file”

*note= the Avid Resolve Creating Dailes paper Job ter Berg links to above does make some things clearer, but the process described for reel numbers will NOT work in R9!

Seems like AVID should be able handle LUTs, I’ll look forward to that in 7.

[Nicholas Vanvoorthuysen]

Thanks Michael.

I already did a batch without setting the Reel number. I did notice it was an empty column in Resolve but I didn’t see where to add it within Resolve… I was doing this really late last night, maybe if I go back now it will be more obvious.

Will it also work to add the Reel # once I bring the MXFs into MC?

[Nicholas Vanvoorthuysen]

Great! thanks so much.

[Nicholas Vanvoorthuysen]

Thanks so much, that was the problem, auto-select.

[Nicholas Vanvoorthuysen]

no, control-V cuts everything that the timeline marker is on without having to click the mouse. I prefer to use control-V over B because it’s faster for me to not use the mouse.

My question was answered below though, the issue was that the auto-select was accidentally off for the v1 track. Now I can control-V slice til the cows come home!
