    Re: 16mm Keycode error

    You shot 16mm and are in a 16mm project, and you are saying that the footage counter is wrong? How does it vary by? The punch list is counting in 20 frames per KeyKode correct and not 40 frames per foot as you would find on a film synchronizer.

    When you enter a value, does the separator between feet and frames show up as an "&" to denote 16mm? Also, is there a burn-in? Does the KeyKode value above the monitor match the burn-in?

    yes keycode value is perfect match with burncode (moniter value) & separator between feet and frames show up as an "+" not "&".

    Re: 16mm Keycode error

    So now I m trying to figure out why the Avid metadata in the bin and above the monitor matches the burn-in exactly, which is what you want, but does not match the punch lists...

    Also, you mention that it is a "+" and not an "&". Can you tell me what the burn-in code is rolling over for the frame counter? Is it +19 -> +00 or is it +15 -> +00?

    no avid meta data in not matching wiht the moniter burn in & aloso not with the the punchlist. frame counter is +19 -> +00. not +15 -> +00.

    Re: 16mm Keycode error

    Check two more things:

    1. Project window, format. Make sure it says 16mm film

    2, Bring up the KN Film column - make sure it says "16.1"

    If those aay 35mm then that would explaing why it may be counting as 35mm and not 16mm.
