Thanks. 90% width and height I believe is the action safe area, is it not?

Hi Aynsley,
The advice I received on the Avid Forum was not to use AMA, but to use LINK and then transcode/consolidate the footage. I also received advice that I should link directly to folders, not to individual MXF clips.
I ended up transcoding the sequence, deleting the corrupt clips, linking to them and working them back into bins, and was able to complete editing the film.
I hope this helps.

Hi Hadas,
I did receive some assistance on the Avid forum, such as:
when AMA linking your footage, bring the footage in as folders, not individual MXF files
after you have your AMA link footage in, transcode it all to DNxHD 185. this way your footage is already all transcoded and you can edit, color correct then export without any problems
I ended up moving the entire project to a Promise Pegasus hard drive form the Lacie Rugged hard drive, then transcoded the sequence I was working on in a separate bin, after duplicating the sequence, and working with that version. This basically worked. I have started to think that the Lacie cannot handle full HD footage so well and will use that drive just as an archival backup drive
The next project I do I will do AMA link to the folders rather than to individual files and see if this does away with the issue.
I had a very curious thing happen which was that footage shot on different days, which was stored in separate bins, started appearing in other bins, replacing the footage that was there. I am hoping that linking to folders will prevent this.
Robert, I looked for your post dealing with Resolve on the Avid Forum and couldn’t find it.

This has now worked out fine. What I did was to export a QT reference file, import then into Squeeze and then applied the Preset. Everything worked fine without an error message.

Hi,
I am using 6.5.2 and am also just getting a black screen when I export a QT reference file. Any suggestions?

Hi,
It has exported to Squeeze ok, but whenever I encode it and send it out of Squeeze for some reason it always cuts off the end of the video. Do you have any idea why this would be happening?
