That worked fine - I have other edit bays that are idle and had not yet been updated to the latest Premiere pro, so they were able to output .scc files.

Have you tried the highest rated email app?
With 4.5 stars in iTunes, the Yahoo Mail app is the highest rated email app on the market. What are you waiting for? Now you can access all your inboxes (Gmail, Outlook, AOL and more) in one place. Never delete an email again with 1000GB of free cloud storage.

Re: [Avid-L2] .scc files from REV.com don't open in Media Composer

 

Are there others who get bitten by this?

I can fix it, and offered a fix to Rev.com. (Not sure if they will accept akemy proposal.)
Since they do something out of specs, I assume other companies / software have the same problems..

Takers? (I need at least 3 to make a 25 euro fixer app.)

Anyone know why .scc files from REV.com don't open in Media Composer? Is there a way to edit/tweak/convert them without using Premiere (or some more expensive piece of software?) I wonder if the problem is on the REV side or the Avid side. It would be great to fix this! Maybe the next version of Media Composer could accept .srt files or something, too - that would be great.

Thoughts?

First, for 1 dollar a minute it's not great value, it's dirt cheap, and I can't imagine it has any quality.

I charge 1 dollar a minute just to watch something.
(We had this discussion before.)

Now, for your problem:
I take it rev.com sends you a zip file.
Did you unzip that on your avid? Things may be messed up if you mail an unzipped file.

If that does not work, can you mail me an example? (It has been years since I've touched my SCC code, but it's still there.)

One idea is to install an older version of Premier. Adobe CC allows this. You can choose "Install other versions" from the CC desktop app.
