Re: [Avid-L2] Is DNxHR only Progressive?

I dig the "would be nice" part, but: Avid is divA, nonetheless.

;-)

btw: as much we are using DaVinci Resolve (DVR) in-house during the whole postproduction process we alway rely on Avid for the final master output. Well, recurring to another thread inhere: with the "old" 32-bit titling tool is was the most adequate tool to finish when the edit and subsequent titling process took place in Avid already.

Maybe it's a missed bent in the learning curve but audio channel routing seems to be straight forward in Avid whereas DVR and the third app get's really quirky here.

Yes, it is, but looking back to FCP7 again, it was possible to swap the alpha on a clip that is already in the system. In Media Composer, if you get it wrong (either with the legacy 'Import' command or when linking, you must delete the clip (and media if imported) and do it again. Since you can swap/reverse it in the Effect Editor after adding such a clip to a sequence, it would be nice to be able to do this to multiple clips in a bin ... Source Settings would be the logical way to do this.

Swap Alpha is there (since ages) in the Import settings.

This looks like a good addition to Avid's Source Settings panel. And while they are at it (if they ever do), how about a swap alpha channel button if needed?

All this said, I have turned to Resolve Studio for material such as this for the following reasons.

1. I can go into clip attributes and change the field order on a media file if needed.
