Re: [Avid-L2] Mixed footage in project

 

Yes, but this user has no issue with AMA, and my suggestion is valid. Your suggestion to turn it off has no relevance to the original poster's question. I'm not sure why you'd suggest it here.

I turn it on and off all the time. I found my system slowed down often with AMA, so if I have a project where I am not using it, I turn it off. It seems to stop the computer from polling drives and scanning footage.

why turn off AMA? What use is that to the OP (or anyone for that matter)?

Or you could turn off AMA in the settings and restart Composer.

What Greg says is fine, but I would also add that you can AMA link to 23.98 sources in a 59.94 project, and the motion adapters will add pulldown when cut into a sequence. If you transcode the AMA linked file, it will bake the pulldown into the transcode.

Set the 23.98 stuff up in a 23.98 project, then open that bin in your 59.94 project and cut away. Media Composer will automatically (in most cases) apply the correct 3:2 pulldown to make the 23.98 stuff look just right.  

Do not import the 23.98 source directly into 5994.

Hi All,
I know we've discussed this before but...
I have a project coming up on MAC Symphony 6.5

2 episodes will have lots of mixed media from files.

23.98 & 59..94. Offline will be cutting 59.94. I'm delivering 59.94 files.

Producer is worried about the look of the 23.98 material mixed in a

59.94 sequence. He does not want to pay for a hardware conversion of material

or final outputs. So the question remains....Is it better to transcode each of the

23.98 files in the sequences or to convert and then import to the final sequence?

Everybody's insight is appreciated...or point to the LAST discussion of this.

Thanks

JC
