Not sure but they have time code so I thought I better ask. So the question remains what type of audio delivery is expected with a .dpx file. From what Rupert told me I really see no reason why the clipster used to make the IMF file couldn't just take a ProResHQ or even better an Avid DNxHRHQX .mov with 8 channels of audio. Those are smaller and more manageable files. Given the original source was Panny AVCAVC‑Intra4K 4:2:2 I see no reason to deliver a .dpx sequence other than people don't want to work in any other way than they have before.
In dealing with the QC house that can QC a proresHQ 4K file but refuses to load the Avid LE codecs so QT can play a DNxHRHQX file I am beyond frustrated. I emailed them and told them I just did this on my earlier startup drive and it took 5 minutes to install the LE codecs. The QC monkey facility responded saying they do 50 hours of QC a week and don't have several hours to reconfigure a bay. Did they even read what I emailed them? How does 5 minutes to install a codec package turn into 2 plus hours of reconfiguration? Oh well QC monkey see, QC monkey no do. It's all a bunch of doo doo.
Oh wait I forgot my safe place, "Uh, hum, Every Pixel Counts, Every Pixel Counts, Every Pixel Counts...." Oh screw it this is just a bunch of crap for the sales department monkeys.
