So after all my hoops the 12 audio mono stem issue is resolved but now we are getting an error at the network when they use XCode for a proxy generation. The message is, "Splitter: bad or missing smpte info". They day they sometimes get errors when there is some DNX media mixed in with the ProRes file. Given the entire video track is ProResHQ 422 I don't see how there is any element of DNX in the file. Is there any chance the audio tracks that were exported as QT Ref from avid then "Saved As" to create a self contained .mov with 12 mono stems could somehow be flagged as DNX? I don't see how given they are audio but I clearly don't see the whole picture here.
The food chain is the file I create then goes to a facility that inserts the Captioning into the file. I believe they use Mac Caption. So far on our test files the captions have not been working for the network. Now I'm not sure how captions get inserted into the file. Does it somehow just insert some header information/metadata to the existing file or does it back out a new file in the process?
I can only think that we should send our raw file to the network for testing to eliminate that as a source for the new error "Splitter: bad or missing smpte info". It was noted that the original file we sent with the interleaved audio did not exhibit this error when run through XCode proxy generation. I am not familiar with XCode's inner workings either. Can anyone shed some light on this?
