Re: [Avid-L2] AMA GUIDES COMPLETE

Happy happy joy joy, Console command ' sybsys monpane debug' gives you the ability to match frame to an imported still.
(Sadly, for a still with alpha you get two tracks loaded...)

For the AMA stuff, is there a bit more info about spanned clips, what works and what does not?
(Today my former assistant found out that Canon C300 spanned clips don't play image in AMA, don't consolidate but DO transcode. ???)

And two small addendums:
Console command IgnoreQTrate True has been partially broken since 5.0.3
It used to be that the duration of a frame was translated to frames, now each 'stretched' frame is imported as just one frame.

For the AMA stuff:
Ikegami GFcam 100 Mbits is broke, non-functional, kaput, highly irritating...
Ikegami blames Avid, and probably vice-versa (but that of course gives good fireplace stories about the goold old days when this behaviour was normal and every bug was fixed in the next, paid update)

While bashing Ikegami:
If you build a highly expensive camera that weighs almost double of its predecessor,
would it be too much to ask to build in some 4 grams electronics costing 3 dollar that gives me an actual WORKING auto audio level control?
