Hey all,
MC 8.3, UHD/4K 23.976 project
2014 Mac Pro (tube) 8 core, AMD 700s GPU, 32 GB RAM
Anyone have experience with Panasonic GH4 footage? I have a batch of 23.976 UHD/4K footage shot with this camera and when I AMA it into Media Composer, the clips come in with good audio but "wrong format" for picture (looks like the "media offline" title, only "wrong format").
This GH4 footage plays fine in Premiere Pro.
R3D UHD footage plays in the same project **, so I wonder if there is an AMA plug-in I am missing? I didn't see anything GH4 related on the AMA page on Avid's web site.
** The proxy modes are either 1/4 or 1/16. The R3DUHD footage plays fine at 1/16 but stutters badly at 1/4. Premiere Pro plays the same R3D footage with no dropped frames at 1/2 res. I guess I am disappointed that the Avid doesn't use the MP's horsepower to play the footage smoothly, and that Avid only offers 1/4 and 1/16 proxy modes. I am glad that Avid finally gave us greater than HD frame sizes natively. But with the limited testing that I have done, PP still has much better playback of UHD / 4K footage. Disappointing.
Appreciate any help on the GH4 bit above.
Thanks,
- Rich
