Re: [Avid-L2] Progressive export Upper Field?

 

OK...I have an Avid 1080p30 project with mixed interlaced and progressive footage. Playing that project I can see the interlaced footage as interlaced, it isn't conforming to the project settings.  If I then do a mix down as DNxHD and export same as source, the resulting file is flagged as Upper field first, even though I'm exporting it from a progressive project. ODDLY, if I reimport it, it'll say DNxHD 145 1080p30...upper field first.  How can it be 1080p30 and have a field dominance?  

This file, when sent to an Alchemist for conversion, initially gets seen as 1080p30, but then when it hits the interlaced footage, stops and freaks out. It wasn't expecting interlaced footage. So somehow this file has mixed metadata.  

So YOU can put interlaced and progressive into a Progressive 1080p30 project, mixdown, export that...and reimport it and it DOES NOT say UPPER FIELD when reimported?  I can do a demonstration video if you want...

So, IOW, your original question makes no sense at all.
What else are you not telling?
(Really, as always, whatever you say is incomplete, makes no sense at all an applies to no-one except you.)

Applied Time Warp and adjusted settings to progressive and made a ProRes mix down. THAT ONE exported at progressive, flagged as progressive. Mixed en to DNxHD 145 and 220, both options exported with an Upper Field flag. 

Ok then

Are you sure there are no effects?
I rememer that Olivier once found out that FrameFlex always renders interlaced, no matter the settings.
(That kinda sucks, as it was a nice way of doing moves on large stills.)

I have a 1080p30 project.  I have a clip that is DNxHD 145 1080p30.  Progressive project, progressive clip.  I do a video mixdown to DNxHD 145 (even tried DNxHD 220x) due to some media on the timeline being long GOP... And then I export SAME AS SOURCE.  Just this patch for this one section with that clip.  And the export, when I check it, says UPPER FIELD first.  And I see interlacing on it.  HOW does this happen? How can I export a progressive clip, from a progressive project, with NO field dominance?

Thanks

Shane
