Re: [Avid-L2] XDCAM metadata

 

Yes, I checked the available columns, but nothing fits the bill. I checked the XML files, and sure enough the info's there. Now I need to get Avid to see the XML info. Anyone have tips for this?

The data is available in the XMLs that go with the files, and it's quite easy to extract that.
 
But who on earth would put a card from camA into camB? If that happens, i would think you have bigger issues with the shooting crew....

Subject: [Avid-L2] XDCAM metadata

 

I regularly work on multicam projects with XDCAM footage shot in the field on PMW-200s. Sometimes TC is jam-synced; sometimes it's not. Sometimes the SxS cards get swapped between cameras and I get multiple cameras on a single card. The situation differs from production to production.

My question is this: Is it possible to pull the following metadata from XDCAM material in MC: Record date, Record Time-of-day, Camera serial number. These bits of info would make my life a lot easier when data wrangling and timecode juggling between heaps of clips.
