Re: [Avid-L2] Level Scaling in Adobe Media Encoder from Avid QT Ref .movs?

 

Oh and I forgot I'm on MC 6.5.4.7 for compatibility reasons with offline.  The custom exports yield interleaved audio and not discrete tracks.  I could use your audio map app but this avoids needing to do that.

I do this because it frees up the Avid to continue working for starters.  Also most people are of the opinion anything other than same as source exports from Avid are not reliable because it involves the QT engine which can have it's own issues.  I'm working in DNX_175X in the timeline so I would have to use a custom export to QT to make an XDCam50.  Also I have to deliver a 10 channel .mov in XDCam50 so the Avid straight to XDCam50 export that creates a .mxf isn't viable plus it is limited to 8 channels of audio.  Is there an export option I'm missing?

All this also avoids the need for endless mixdowns especially when I have to add pull down.  I am not versed in FF mpeg but have become somewhat comfortable with Adobe Media Encoder so I go with what I know.  Adobe Media Encoder does support parallel encoding so I can have both XDCam50 and H_264 going at the same time although in practice I usually do them in sequence so I get the XDCam 50 sooner.

I could probably use Sorenson instead of AME but I've spent more time with AME lately and find it adequate for the work.

If I use Adobe Media Encoder to bake XDCam50, H264 or ProRes files from an Avid

Why would you do that?
Avid can do perfectly good XDcam50, and FFmpeg can do perfectly good H264
And the beauty is, you can start the H264 encoding the moment Avid starts spitting out the XDcam, so they end up being ready at about the same time.
