The whole thing has made my head hurt. This kind of thing makes me want to scream. I had a good experience with that when I was dealing with a negative cutter once. I had an odd flash frame that I actually wanted on the workprint, and he called just to make sure it was there on purpose.

bassguitarhero posted:FCPX is not that bad, I had someone come to me for a fine edit and color correction for a short done entirely in FCPX and I got the hang of it in an hour or do. I think it's easier to cut your teeth with a project already in working condition so I'd look at opening up something existing or using an app called 7 to FCPX to convert a Final Cut Pro 7 project to X and then start playing with it I think the biggest hangup is how different FCPX handles file management compared to 7.

Has anyone ever encountered the flashing green frame issue on Premiere? This is specifically happening on CS6 with a Mac Laptop (with Yosemitie). The video this student is trying to import into Premiere plays fine in quicktime, but when it's brought into CS6 it starts the flashing green frame nonsense. I don't believe it's a sequence problem because it happens in the preview window as well. Looking at the file, it's a quicktime 29.97i file. Why it's interlaced, I have no idea because it came from a camera that shouldn't be shooting interlaced. I have a feeling someone gave this student the file after encoding it in Media Encoder, and that it was possibly shot in 24, but I don't have access to the raw footage, so I can only guess. I've searched this all over and there doesn't seem to be a good answer anywhere, just un-resolved threads.

1st AD posted:Is Mercury engine running on hardware or software rendering? Does the file flash green when stepping through frame by frame, or only on playback? What codec is the file using? 1) On the software side. 2) You see it when stepping through. 3) It says avc1 in the properties. The department that is handing the student these files is opening the memory card, opening the avchd package, and exporting through QuickTime. Yes, I know that is just wrong on many levels. Edit: I'm having a feeling that I need to re-encode this video file outside of premiere as Pro Res or h264 and then bring it back in. Now that I know what his codec is, when I search for it, it seems to bring up a constant stream of green flickering issues in google. Max fucked around with this message at 19:07 on Nov 13, 2014 |

Max posted:1) On the software side. Nope, my theory didn't hold water. Also, this video file is so hosed up it's causing Avidmux to poo poo the bed. I don't know what to do about it.
