Cutting on a MC v2.8.3 on Mac OSX v10.4.11 Client recorded a live broadcast in the truck on a HD recorder (make and model unknown just at the moment). I received a hard drive with HD QTs (1920x1080) that had been o/p using the DNxHD codec. Initially, I was only getting the top half of the video frame...

Andi you could try this - an Avid certified DNxHD transcoding plugin to Sorenson Squeeze 8. http://shop.avid.com/store/product.do?product=307799591993888

No, it's not a fast import, Pat, as it's straight AVCHD into MC. This is what I discovered (1080i/50 footage - MC5.5.3): 1. If I take a AVCHD file straight into MC, irrespective of whether I have 601/709 or RGB set on the import, it makes no difference. Luminance range is 0 to 255. 2. If I take...

Has anything been done about this issue? I'm trying to export some ProRes 422 HQ Quicktimes for a distribution company and I always end up with what seems like this same RGB behaviour upon export (my blacks are getting crushed). Does anyone know of a solid way to convert DNxHD quicktime to ProRes...

I have just begun using the Avid DNxHD CODEC upon the recommendation of a friend within After Effects and Premiere CS6. When exporting from After Effects, a 10bit 23.976fps 1080p file looks great. When loaded into premiere, it looks great, however, when rendered out of premiere into another file (using...

Hello all. We did a project a while back in Symphony 5.5 where we were given all our source media in ProRes 422 HQ. At the time, the best workflow we knew of was to AMA link to the ProRes files, and then transcode them to DNxHD (at the time we were having trouble with the reliability of AMA linking)...

We have been getting Alexa footage a lot recently, and we normally ask for ProRes 422 dailies or DNxHD dailies (already in a .mxf format). When we import ProRes, we set it up to "fast import" and re-wrap as .mxf. We try to keep the Avid project strictly one or the other (ProRes or DNxHD), but...

Hi everyone, I have a simple question (I think) I want to transcode footage to the DNxHD 120 format using Media Composer 6, however in the Target Video Resolution drop down DNxHD is not showing. I saw another post that this depends on project settings, but it didn't explain further than that. Does...

Hello, I am editing on a Media Composer 6.0.1.1 connected to ISIS 5000. Why don't I have the DNxHD 220/220x possibility in my Media Creation Settings? Do I have to download something?

Hi everyone, I am sure there are a lot of posts about DSLR workflow on Avid, but I couldn't find one that answers my simple questions. I am pretty new to Avid Media Composer, I've just switched to it after Premiere, and my question is the following. How shall I import DSLR H264 files to Avid...
