I need to do the following:
Take sets of 4 clips from gopros covering the same event. Sync them
from audio-only cues. Trim the head of each clip so they all start from
the same sync frame, and export the trimmed clips - preferably without
having to re-encode or transcode to a different format. Each set of
clips is at 48 or 60 fps. Some sets are 1920x1440, others 1920x1080.
I'd also like to add warps/pips to each set in the editor so I can
review all 4 at once (or multicam them.)
It doesn't seem like Avid is the best tool for the job. AMA performance
of H264 is still pretty bad with even 1 clip on the 24-core Westmere Mac
Pro I'm using. I don't think Avid can export AMA H264s same-as-source
after trimming, and certainly can't do it with odd raster sizes and
frame rates. Transcoding for something so simple seems like a waste of
time and space, and the non-standard rasters and frame rates will be a
pain there too.
Can Premiere or some other editor deal with this sort of task natively
and gracefully? What would folks recommend?
Thanks,
--Michael
