Hello everyone
One of our customers just begun production of a reality show, where they film some folks around the day.. something like BigBrother. They are using MC with interplay to edit the material but we've hit some limits that makes the editors life very hard :
1. They use "Autosequence" to line up in sequence all the clips, recorded with time of the day as TC. That is a nice feature, but unfortunately those sequences cannot be used in a multicam group. We;ve tried the "Autosync" on those sequences to create a subclip, but it;s not working since there are edits in it. (not sure what edits are, since there is no cuts, trims etc)
As a workaround you must do videomix downs on those clips, but this is insane since the it takes a lot (they have 8 or 9 cameras, and the resulting clips are around 18 h per day.
Is there any other way that you can use those sequences for multicam? I
Is it true that Premiere can do it?
2. Seems that we've hit a bug where sound records longer that 4 hours are not played in MC, Import is fine, but you cannot get any audio out of MC. Waveform is also blank. As a result you need to split the audio in smaller files
3. Initially they planned to have one sequence per day where they can have all the material in. But we've hit 2 limitations: If a sequence is longer than 12 h, you will not get any audio out, even if waveform is there. You need to split the sequence to monitor audio tracks. Also you cannot have more than 24 audio tracks, in MC 7. or 8. In MC 5 you can have more that 24, but only 24 active
How do people deal with those limits? I would assume that others hit those issues before us.. maybe they have a solution
Thanks
Marian B
