Freeze clips after sending RED-Project to Color

I have a RED project, edited in Final Cut. there are some RED reference files consist from 2 RED clips. the clips in project are linked with the 4k reference files (-F.mov an the end) but in the file container there are 2 or 3 RED files the reference links to. in final cut no problem. but if I send the project to COLOR the clips freeze between the switch from RED-file 1 to 2. the only way I found to edit the red file direct to color. What can I do to make a good transfer from Final Cut to Color with mutiple RED files? Thanx!

Thank you for the information. it was very tricky to finish the project. The clips named ..._F.mov with Freezes in Color sent from Final Cut will be send back to Final Cut with the Freezes. So I made a new Video Track in Color and imported the original Red-Files (they have no Freezes anymore) and edited the lenght. I corrected them but Color doesn't send the new Video Track and the new material back to Final Cut... So in Final Cut I imported the in Color rendered .mov-files from the new material and this worked finally... I'll take a look at the colorfixer...

  • Problems with sound clips after conv. iMovie project via mediabrow. to iDVD

    I have made a 30 min long project with 80 small video clips. The project is alright when viewing it in iMovie, but after I have prepared via the mediabrowser and thenaften view the project in iDVD - every other sound clips is without sound and on some video clips it mixes some soundtracks from other tracks into it. Any ideas, I'm getting very frustrated
    Thanks in advance

    I'm having the same problem. Everything plays beautifully in Imovie and then when its shared with idvd or media browser it all goes weird. I get sound from footage that I either haven't used at all or audio that I have detached and deleted playing over the top of other bits, or sound going out of sync.
    All my video footage was shot with 12 bit audio. For most of the footage that I've used, I've detached and deleted the original audio and put other tracks over the top, the footage that still has it's original audio, I've converted so it has 16 bit audio. I hoped that would solve the problem but my newest version of the video seems to be worse than before.
    Everything plays fine in imovie and then warps when it's shared.
    Any ideas would be greatly received as I am going crazy and wasting a heck of a lot of time that I don't really have!!!

  • Is there a way to add Handles to clips when "send to (and from) color"

    Hi all. Here is the reason i want handles.
    After you finish your (draft) project you grade it in color, then the client comes in and approve it or makes some changes. But then i have no handles to play with if there are any changes.
    thanks
    Andre

    I actually did read the entire color manual 2 months ago and have done 2 projects on it so far. But obviously i didn't remember every little thing.
    The setup room you revered to is actually the room where you browse your files on your MAC etc. But i understand why you said that because you have to be in the setup room to be able to go to the project settings room. Thanks for your help Zebulun. I did go to page 102 and it solved my problem. The reason i couldn't find the "handles" setting is because its (for some weird reason) under the broadcast safe tab. And i didn't bother looking there.
    Thanks again
    Cheers

  • IPhone freezes/hangs after sending iMessage

    Anyone else having this problem or know a fix? Almost every time I send an iMessage my Iphone 4 will hang/freeze for almost 30 seconds before I can do anything else. If I send a regular txt it's fine. Anyone know of a fix for this? It's becoming very annoying

    I'm suffering the same thing. Seems to happen during the day (as opposed to the night). This was happening before and I read somewhere it was traced to the use of the Mac OX Messages beta app that Apple released before Mountain Lion. I uninstalled that beta and things seemed to get better. Now I'm running ML on my Mac and this issue is back. Is there an issue with the Mac app logged into iMessage and the iPhone too?
    Very curious whether this has a fix somewhere.
    Thanks for posting.

  • Red color clips after export to H.264

    Dear friends,
    I am very new to try use Color. I sent seq. from FCP to Color, changed some clips use Color FX, and than back to FCP.
    After export seq. from FCP to H.264 for web, some of the clips appeared red.
    Thanks for any answer.
    Libor

    Do you mean red render bars or the clips are actually Red? With Color you should avoid H.264 until after any rendering. ProRes or Uncompressed are the best codecs to bounce between Color and FCP.

  • Color timeline starts each clip at 00:00:00:00 after sending from FCP

    When I export a sequence from FCP (7.0.3) to Color (1.5.3), the latter shows a timeline with clips of the proper duration, but with the wrong in/out. Each clip in the Color timeline starts at 00:00:00:00 of the source file, as opposed to the "in" I had selected in FCP.
    The video originated as h.264 files from a 5D. I transcoded the files to ProRess 422 for editing, and am sending them from FCP to Color as such. The FCP timeline contains nothing but these ProRes video clips.
    Thanks for your help...

    any way to use an edl with these kind clips?
    That poses an interesting option, maybe. For starters, though, the Send To... COLOR command instructs FCP to write an XML export that is decoded by COLOR, and that should take care of things.
    There is a strategy that AVID users sometimes employ, and that is to export a CMX EDL, open that under COLOR and link to the media directly under COLOR (this works for RED flow). I am mystified as to why COLOR defaults to the first frame of your exported clips -- unless the time code is faulty in some way (or is not present), and so COLOR is simply beginning at the beginning as a kind of default.
    Even if the in-point is wrong, are the clip durations correct?
    Are you absolutely sure there is timecode on the ProRes clips? Apparently this is a problem shared with Final Cut Express, where exported QT clips always start at zero, but this is hearsay on my part as I have never dealt with FCE.
    An alternate strategy at this point might be to export a complete Quicktime of your finished (textless) project, re-import it into FCP and "razor" cut it using your original timeline as a cutting guide. That sequence would go to COLOR with no issues.
    A lot of users do this as standard procedure if they want to avoid a lot of "baking" and conforming if they've got a large number of mixed, or unsupported, media clips on a timeline. As a brute-force solution, its the Big Unifier.

  • The Color doesn´t recognize the clips´time when I send from FCP to COLOR

    I have a big problem. When I send from FCP to Color does not recognize the mounting clips. In each plane is everything and not the s 2 or 4 seconds it had in the assembly of the FCP.
    I have worked with Color more times and have not had that problem.
    Anyone can help me?. Can it be the codecs, the times of the FCP, the settings of COLOR?
    Could you help me, please ?

    subpaper clips.
    What is a "subpaper clip"?
    By the way, all this nonsense about COLOR only supporting one layer of video... where is this coming from? This is utterly untrue... I am thinking of Stevie Wonder's song that states that when people believe in things they don't understand, that's superstition.
    Rather than try to explain all the things that COLOR cannot do, maybe it would be easier to lay out the basic concept of what should be sent.
    Very fundamentally, COLOR is a sequential-file (.dpx) color correction or grading application that has been modified to work with a few Quicktime codecs, and can accept a single sequence of independent media (discrete clips) from Final Cut. That sequence can have many layers, but it cannot have any nested sequences, and there still are a number of editing strategies within Final Cut that can be proxied, albeit inexactly, but occasionally not at all.
    The safest sequence to send to COLOR from Final Cut consists of independent Quicktime Clips, all of the same resolution, codec, and frame rate, which should match the sequence settings of the Final Cut project. There is a naive assumption that anything that can be done in Final Cut can be replicated in COLOR and returned intact. This is absolutely untrue, and the evidence of that is everywhere in this, and other forums.
    In this particular instance, "zotero"'s problem, while lamentable, is of his own creation by ignoring or proceeding without any preparation or investigation, and assuming that every editor's concept of what passes for the creative process has been anticipated and compensated for by the application developers.
    To mark them manually now when already I have the definitive assembly is a labor of many hours.
    Unfortunately, that may be your fate. Alternatively, you may consider the use of a "Media Manage" operation which will re-organize the independency of the source media. The Media Manager is covered extensively in the Final Cut manual. I'd advise doing a lot of back-ups before proceeding with anything else at this point, because it really looks like there is going to be a lot of trial-and-error in the near future... mostly error. Good luck with it all.

  • Quicktime Error (-2000) after sending AppleProRes 422 clips to Shake

    Hi there, I have been using FCP (7.02) and Shake (4.11) infrequently, mainly the smooth cam node with clips from my DV Camcorder. My new Full HD camcorder is recording AVCHD video which is transformed into Apple ProRes 422 when logged and transferred to FCP. After sending these sequences or clips to Shake, the node turns red and the clips don't show. In Shake's console appears an message related to the imported file which says <quicktime error (-2000)>.
    Is there any way to solve this problem and does anyone know what causes it?

    For what it's worth, QuickTime error -2000 means "Could not resolve data ref." Ordinarily I would assume that you were using reference movies but this clearly isn't the case.
    It would seem that Final Cut Pro is formatting the movie clips in a way that Shake doesn't recognize so it might be worth recompressing in QuickTime or Compressor to see if that solves the issue.

  • Colored bars in clip after apply a little motion

    I get these colored bars in my clip after applying some motion effects (kern). Rendering does not solve. Any idea?
    Here is a screenshot:
    http://kttns.org/nkzgy

    I had a very similar problem a while back, but I never found a solution. I think it was somehow linked to using an external USB drive (which is definitely a bad idea!).
    Are you using an external drive to store your media? If so, what type and how is it formatted?

  • After sending XML back to FCP, not all clips make it to the timeline :(

    The clips I sent from FCP were on 3 video tracks (most of them on the 1st). Mostly DVCProHD 720, with some SD DV and a little 2K (which didn't translate to Color). All clips after the 2K didn't come back to FCP, and none of the clips on the video 2 and video 3 tracks came back, either. I wonder...

    There's a question in here somewhere, I'm sure of it...
    If your 2K clips were on Layer 1, and COLOR lost the plot there, then nothing on layer 2 or 3 would have been seen either, since clips are numbered consecutively along the Layers, with the first clip on Layer 2 being (last clip # on Layer 1 +1) , and the first clip on Layer 2 being (last clip # on Layer 2 +1) and so on.
    Mixed formats are usually a recipe for disaster.

  • Premiere freezes after sending to encoder

    So I'm running the latest version of CC. I've got a very simple and straight forward timeline. After sending "Exporting Media" via queue to Media Encoder, everything exports fine. But after returning to Premiere, it has become impossibly slow--practically frozen. No crash, no error message, just takes about 60 seconds for any clicks to register. I click save project, and the saving progress bar does not visibly progress, yet it seems to actually successfully save the project, because closing and launching premiere, the file is saved up-to-date just fine.
    So for the past few days, I've been saving --> export/queue timeline --> quit premiere --> allow queue to complete --> then relaunch premiere... Of course, this is only a temporary work around.
    Now, if I "Export" the media only without queueing in Encoder, it does fine and premiere remains stable and normal.
    Ideas?

    You have not provided any system info or other technical details like your sequence settings or footage used, so nobody can know anything. Either way, ask in the Premiere forum and provide al lthat necessary info.

  • Deleting Clips After Completing Project

    I am a novice here.  After creating a project can I delete the clips used in that project or are they still used to play the movie?

    Hi
    You are using a Non-Destructive Video editor. Meaning.
    • Video Imported/Capture is stored in one place
    • Project - is no movie but a text document pointing to the original material and how it is to be played.
    So when trashing Event's - Project's too are killed.
    To get space on Start-Up (Mac OS) Hard Disk I do move Event's and Project's to external HDs
    • MUST BE - Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted
    • Should be FireWire - As USB/USB2 performs badly to me
    • MUST MUST - be moved within iMovie Application - Never moved or altered via DeskTop/Finde as connections to iMovie will break.

  • Two things, One freezing after sending files, two ...

    So yea, the first one i'm sure i'm not the first to wonder why it's doing that for and i did try some of the things that were told to be done like; Renaming skype in the %appdata% and then deleting that other skype folder in that other place but, it just re-freezes after sending anything again anyway, and secondly, for some reason the ads keeps flickering whenever i type something it's not really all that big of a deal on this one but, it's annoying anyway.
    So, in short, why does it keep freezing after sending something and how do i make it stop freezing.
    And on a side note, i'm very terrible with forums so, please don't be hating me if i posted this in the wrong place.

  • Unwanted freeze frame after cutting out clip

    I have a video clip I want to cut a bit out of. I split the playhead (Apple-T) before and after the bit I want to remove, remove the bit I don't want, and join the remaining clips together.
    When I play the movie back, the last frame before the cut freezes on the screen for a few seconds, covering the first part of the clip after the cut.
    When I scroll the playhead (using the arrow keys), the video looks normal. I only see the frozen frame when I play it.
    I've tried adding a transistion, but the frozen frame pops up after the transition. I've added black space, but the frozen frame appears after the black space.
    The audio either plays normally or stutters a bit.
    This doesn't happen all the time, but I'd like to know how to fix or prevent it.
    Thanks,

    If all else fails I'd select the offending clip and maybe also the neighbouring clips and export them as Full Quality DV and import it back. If that single concatenated clip plays OK you could delete the duplicates.
    If also that fails, I'd re-import the offending clip from tape.
    If also that fails, I'd start regular troubleshooting about some more widespread problem.
