“Historic plus the fact that non video machines needed linear timecode to be recorded on audio channels to syncronise. ”

What does that mean? :0

Thanks so much guys!!!

OK.. so the 16mm keys roll over every 20 frames. 2 keys per foot = 40 frames

They match the burn in, so that is looking good.

Anyone know if we can get “Duration” in frames only?

Or if we can get Keys and “Source In” timecode in the same list?

Thanks,
Chris

I think I understand the problem a little better..

This is roughly what I need from an EDL-

Foot/ Duration/First-Last Key/ Start TC/ Tape#/LRoll/CRoll/Clip Name

1677 163 EH 56 7015-6141+02 05:36:34:10 VT001 AIR74 C132 50A(c)

This is what FCP kicks out –

Shot Time Duration Keycode In Frame Out Frame Roll Clip name

002 02:00:08:00 00:13:25 EB 73 6343 9660&14 9677&05 A66 25C-4PU

So it would seem take FCP can NOT create an EDL that has both Keys and Tape #….

So my question is now how do I merge the two EDLs into one? Or can this actually be done now with Cinetools 3?

Also can FCP output “Duration” as frames only?

Thanks, Chris

Did some searching.

I think that if; an ale log and a FLX file was imported into Cinetools 3 and then imported into FCP 5.1 successfully and the editing was done using these clips from the ALE & FLX files, created from the telecine… there should be no problem exporting a EDL with key and source TC back to Cinetools 3 and creating 23.98 EDLs with source TC and KC, (maybe bins?). I’ll want to create an MS Excel tab file? as well as something we can import into Filemaker?, Looks like Cinema Tools 3 can also create a negative cut list as well.

got link?.

Hello,

Sorry about this… But I forgot how to repair permissions.
Did a search, but nothing obvious popped up.

Thanks, Chris

Hello Guys,

To add my 2 cents. I output 23.98 to D5 or HDSR, and then have the audio house send over a MMR8 or DA88s, running at 29.98 Our audio engineers conform it and it works just fine..

It’s magic. 🙂

Happy Halloween
Chris
