Hi
Do the files (on finder level) has an extension? If so, is the extension with small letters?
And which codec is it?

Cheers

The funny things is that it helps to write the issue, because a few minutes later I found the solution.
In the conform page – under media pool I had written something in the search field, when I deleted that i worked perfectly – or DaVinci is actually doing something now.
I do not want to jinx it, I am at clip 106 out of 601. But I think it will work.

Hi again

I back at the online-process.
@ Peter: I do have all three, I have a cubrix box to extend the PCI-card

@Paul: I did a test with R3D-trim in DaVinci, and it seem that it did what I wanted, so I restarted the conform process, loaded all the RAW-material into the mediapool, imported an AAF from Avid. I seems like Resolve was not able to relink the clips. Most of the clips were random picked, and I had to force conform a lot. I tried to import in different ways, AAF, EDL, tried different patterns in the settings, nothing worked. I do have an idea that it is because of the structure the RAW- material is in – I mean folderstructure – that I can not change now, then the VFX-department would come after me. That is up for test in the future.

So the status now is, I have a fully conformed timeline, and now I am ready to trim the R3D, but each time I try, DaVinci is not making any new clips, only the folder they should be in.
I have tried marking all of the timeline, marking just one track, marking just 10 minutes..same results.

Do any of you have any solution?

Cheers

Hey Paul, thanks for the answer.

No I haven’t tried the Trim R3D in Resolve. I’ll do a test on monday when I’m back at work.

The reason why I used Redcine was because I find that Resolve is quite unstable when I load so many TB in the mediapool. And right now the RAW RED is on a network shared (via ethernet 1Gbps) raid.

Just af few specs of the grading suite:
Intel 2.6 GHz
6-core xeon
32 GB RAM
RED-ROCKET
Caldigit- HDPRO 8TB
Nvidia GT-120
Geforce GTX 680
Nvidia Quadro4000
Mac Os X 10.8.2
DaVinci Resolve 9.0.2 – (right now I am testing on DaVinci Lite 9,0.3 in another suite)

Cheers

Hi David
I know it is a late response.
If the DNx is already in a mxf wrapper, then you don’t need to AMA link to it, just put the files in your avid Mediafiles/mxf/whatever numbers is available, and then import the .mdb or ale you probably got.

Last time I experienced that issue it was because a client had put a cd in the computer. The cd contsined a / in the name or on the disc.
Check if you have any drives with some “forbidden” letters on it.

If the files already are .mxf, then you should place the files so avid can see them on the root level of hard drive.
Then make sure that your folder structure is correct
Avid Mediafiles > MXF > 1 (or the number you have reached).
Then you can do two things.
1) import the .ale or aaf that came along with the clips
Or
2) let avid scan the media drive and drag the file that ends with .mdb (media database) – it is somewhere among your files

Hope it helps

Or actually you can also choose the PCM (better audio) and you will have even more options

Hi aaron

If you choose AAC in audio settings, then you will have more options. Hope it helps.
