Re: Timecode inconsistent with 24P DVCPRO HD - 18 years agoHi, Michael Horton asked me to have a look at your problem. As far as I understand you seem to have run into the the oldest long term FCP trap: "audio before video". This trap works "fine" with both merged and subclips. It has nothing to do with 24P or 25 or 25P or whatever framerate or format.

This article is great and very helpful. But he is wrong with the "video forever and ever is 72 dpi" and this dpi discussion may confuse people in connection with video.

In case you need to get back audio from DAT in a later state of the project, it might be better to work at "real" 24/24 fps within FCP, so audio will keep it's timecode related to the timeline. But video will loose it.

Just a small note on that: two dots. "." is not really the same as double zero - it's used as a divider for TC; anything out of "." or ",", ";", ":" can be used.

For AE Realviz also offers Retimer, which can give good results as well - but as said render times are included.

Not really true. Rich Text Format allows you to set fonts, size etc. - that's true. RTF is a common text format for all platforms and many applications. But it's not really the standard for TextEdit, you set the standard for it by setting the prefs.

The good thing is that it does support RTFD and works like a little word processor.

Andreasby Andreas Kiel - Café LA Re: Linked clips lose sync - 17 years agoWe had this "audio before video" thing here some weeks ago and it turned out that it was the "trouble maker" in that case. Maybe - even if it changes the thread somehow - some of you, who use multi-channel audio, can do me (and finally others) a favour: take a P2 or other native 1V/4A clip, delete 2 channels, export as XML and re-import that one and tell me about the result.by Andreas Kiel - Café LA Re: Linked clips lose sync - 17 years agoI can't answer why it happens with one editor and not with the other, but I know the problem as well. One issue since early times of FCP is that audio shouldn't start before video with synched clips, this is a potential trouble maker. We solved the problem by exporting all synched clips (or doing the synch externally).

An EDL clip/file name may only contain letter A-Z or numbers. So having something else in there will make fail read the EDL in most cases. Maybe you can post a sample EDL?
