Re: [Avid-L2] Film Info Displayed?

 

Don't even get me started on these gremlins...

and heaven help you if you change your 'format' to 720, and try to add your usual 'filler' to the spot - it forgets how to do the math and you don't get the right number of frames.. your spot doesn't start on an even hour any more... time for math!

Michael, you were correct. 
Somehow (gremlins?) the TC above the Record Monitor got set to film TC 35mm/4 perf.
There's no way to change the Source side.

I have some additional poking around to do, 
but that fixed the Quick Transition dialog window, at least.

Thanks for shaking the cobwebs out of my brain!

Cheers,

Benjamin

Thanks for the reply Michael -- much appreciated.
I just upgraded to MC 8.4.2 (amazingly, it still runs on 10.8.5) to see
if that'd do anything . . . nope. I'll poke around a bit more and see 
what might fix this. Thanks for the suggestions… I'll let you know.
Cheers,

From film composer days, I seem to remember the quick transition dialog used whatever format was set in the top display in your sequence monitor.  So if you were set to feet and frames up there, that's what you'd see in the quick transition.

I would guess you're set to display 35mm 4-perf, yet you seem to be showing timecode rather than feet/frames, so that's puzzling.  Can you change the the topmost sequence timecode display to something else, ie. sequence TC 24 or something similar?

Hi gang,

I'm running MC v8.4.0 on OS 10.8.5 (not optimal, I know).
I've already tried new User Settings and recreated MCState, 
and I'm still getting some weirdness in a 720p 23.976 project.
In the Quick Transition dialog window, it's showing feet and frames,
and doesn't remember the last used effect, so I have to keep reselecting it every time.

In 2 of the Data Displays above the Src/Rec window, there's the added text: "35.4"

Pictures:

Any thoughts?

Cheers,
Benjamin
