Sure this is a relatively simple fix in the grand scheme of things for Adobe?Īs metioned earlier, the issue is with PP because it has proved it can take this framerate/speed problem into account when writing the XML but it only does half a job because it only takes the frame rate conform into account for retimed clips, the frame rate conform on clips with no speed adjustment will be ignored. However this is not fool prop and clips can slip a few frames. This makes PP think that everything has a speed adjustment and therefore treat all footage like it's been conformed and apply the correct speed in DaVinci (you don't need to conform the clips in DaVinci). The second option i have found is to change all the footage on the timeline to have 'optical flow' on even if it's at 100% speed. This is an option but not a good one if you have lots of footage. Now that is no longer an option and sadly it means waiting hours for AME to transcode everything with the conform. back in my FCP days I used to use Cinema Tools to conform footage instantly. This therefore feels like a bug/mistake as PP should treat all footage (retimed or not) on the timeline exactly the same - the silly half and half method it currently uses is utterly useless. So the main issue for me is that PP only takes into account on an XML any conform you have done on a retimed clip, if you have not retimed a clip the conform will be ignored.
In DaVinci I add this clip to the media pool, again conform the clip to 25fps, import the XML and check the timeline but the clip is now retimed to 40% instead of 80% because PP has tried to account for the conform but not bothered with the other clips. I conform a 50fps clips to 25fps in PP, and then speed this up to 80% on the timeline. The results is that everything that isn't retimed is fine but anything retimed tries to take into account the conform and is way off.Į.g.
When I import this into DaVinci I import all used media first, conform this footage to the same frame rate I conformed in PP, and then import the XML. I understand it's not surprising, but I can find people mentioning this problem from 2013 - so it hasn't been fixed in 5 years which I find simply bizarre - and more so I do thiink this particular problem is how PP writes XMLs when you have conformed footage inside PP.įor me the issue is usually when I conform all the clips in PP to the same frame rate and then retime a few of these clips.
