MXF export with FCSrv

Hello,
I want to create an automation to transcode files IMX30 Mov to Mxf with FCSrv. Is there any way to do it? I tried MXF4MAC export for FCS and doesn´t work.
Thanks.

mxfactory works really well and can be integrated well into Final Cut Server. I recently deployed this to automatically generate mxf files for a bunch of dpx image sequences direct into an Avid unity where the editors could simply drag the files into their projects from the media tool as soon as the files were available. its a lot faster than any of the other tools we've tested so far. The price tag was a bit hefty though.

Premiere CS6 - MXF export with 8 channel audio does not export my audio channels correctly

Hey Volks,
when i try to export an mxf file with 8 channel audio, premiere does a kind of main mix in channel 1 and 2 and channel 3 to 8 remain silent. It does not include my assignment of audio channels in the mxf file.
im very thankful for any idea...

Hi Dast Media,
Have you resolve the multi channel export?
I have the same problem...(the export it's ok but i hear only the first two tracks)
i need to export a MXF file with 8 tracks, 6 stereo and 2 mono.
Thank you for help!

MXF export with audio problems

Hi!
At the brodcast station that I work we recently upgrade to premiere CC. Our workflow are almost XDCAM files (MXF) and whe an edition is finished we export to MXF to play out or copy to XDCAM disc.
Recently I have a multi camera project and everything works perfect but when I export to an MXF file the sound as a "blank frame" in sound. The concert as an hour and twenty minutes and at the fisrt second
theres is that little "cut" in sound that doesn't exist in timeline.
I tryed various ways to export and everytime I got this frame in the same place. I also export timelines with 2 minutes from other projects, more simple, and always I got a "blank frame" somewhere in audio.
Tryed to export with 2 channels, 8 channels, stereo timeline multichannel timeline and everything result in a MXF in this audio issue.
Anyone already detect this exporting to MXFs, any sugestion to resolve this problem?

Thank you norok65 for replying this post.
I searched for some post with my problem and I didn't find so I post this one. I'm "glad" that I'm not the only one having this Kind of problem.
Like you said the problem cames with some updates. We used Premiere CS5 and no problem with MXF. We tryed the CS6 to possible update and
at the begining no problem but after some updates this problem appears and we abandoned the CS6 and we tested the CC. No problem with CC
and we did the migration. So, CC export MXFs with no problem but after some updates the audio problems came up again.
I think the problem is the updates and Adobe must fix this.
Jim, I already did some tests and exported only audio to WAV and no problem. Other formats like quictime no problem too.
This kind of problem only appears with MXF.
Like I said our workflow are almost everything in MXF (XDCAM) and we wish this issue can be solved.

DNxHD (.mxf) export with alpha channel

Hello!
I'm working with one Finnish children's feature film which will star end of this year as an DIT. Movie will include lot's of green screen and the production want's me to do chroma keyed DNxHD 36 renders with alpha channel for AVID editorial. So far I have found out that neither davinci desolve nor assimilate scratch can't do it. Is it possible to render DNxHD with alpha channel from AE? And can Avid import these files with alpha channel? All help is needed and appreciated.
Cheers
Antris

Are you sure your alpha is there? (check by pressing "a" with the mouse over the view window).
Did you try telling FCP that there is an alpha channel? If you did "Send to Shake", Final Cut Pro doesn't expect that the QuickTime it's getting back will contain an alpha channel (It's meant to match your sequence settings). You might try dragging the output directly into the browser to re-import it and see if it recognizes the alpha...
As a matter of fact, maybe you can check in QT Player, load it into QuickTime Player, cmd-j, click on the video track and play with the transparency setting. Try Straight Alpha - that should lead to the background going white - then you'll know its coming out of Shake properly and concentrate on getting FCP to recognize it...
If all else fails (I did just try it here and it worked), maybe try a TIFF or TGA sequence?
post back,
Patrick

MXF export flagged as "out of disk space" - never finishes

Have an AVC-INTRA project which has a motion jpeg sequence in it. When I attempt to export the entire sequence as MXF - avc-intra 100 the export through media encoder stops between 50 and 65% and a message comes up by windows indicating that an application needs to close. Media Encoder CS5 5.0.1 does not complete the encoding and generates an error messege "out of disk space" However, there is ample space on the drive being used to export the project. Is there a file size limit to mxf export or duration limit to mxf export? DO NOT UNDERSTAND why this export is not completing!
Need help! Thanks.

At first I thought I had a rendering issue with mxf but discovered Premiere Pro CS5 was creating the CONTENTS folder for the mxf on the right drive as per panasonics requirements. Of course any sequence you export as an MXF file gets broken up into chunks in the contents folder. One concern I have is if there is a limit in length or file size that the export is being limited to. My sequence is 90 minutes in length. Or better yet is the MXF container running out of chunk names for the sequence thus terminating the export. Not sure on both. I remember back in 1.5 or 2 when there was a bug concerning rendering long sequences but I thought Adobe has gotten past those types of errors. Maybe not. I checked the project size and there doesn't seem to be anything unusually large or strange going on with the project size. This sequence is picture only with no audio. If anyone else has a long sequence I recommend trying this to see if you get the same results. Export should not be duration limited. The other area I am thinking could be a problem is with memory management. I've got 12 gigs of ram and I set media encoder to use a max of 9 gigs. I'm wondering is there is something loosing track of memory on a longer export. Created a new project and will try again. This is my fourth attempt today.

Premiere Pro MXF Export in rec709

Hi, i want to export a mxf file with the color space rec709 (not rgb) because i want to import it into AVID and wanna have it broadcast-save.
Thank you for your help!
Hallo, ich möchte aus Premiere eine MXF exportieren, die den Farbraum 709 hat und nicht RGB (so dass auch Avid das Video frisst und das ganze sendefähig ist)
Kann mir jemand helfen?

nun bin ich aber doch leicht gekitzelt!
Ich kann den Export wie oben bereits vermerkt mit H.264 1980x1020 50p ja machen und dann diese Datei mit einem Multimediagerät z.B. WDTV life hub oder Popcorn Hour A400 abspielen. Nur ist das manöverieren in einem 1 - 2 Stunden Film aber sehr lästig.
Kann ich nachvollziehen. Ich bin in der gleichen Situation.

Tja, wenn du FullHD in 50p haben willst musst du damit leben. Ansonsten musst du dich an den Blueray-Standard halten, was ja nicht unbedingt schlecht sein muss. Die öffentlich-rechtlichen Anstalten senden auch in 720p.
Ich denke, es ist aber nur eine Frage der Zeit bis die Standards entsprechend angepasst werden.

We are trying to close caption our telecasts. We get the captioning files done out of house, pull them back into Premiere, and then embed them. The TV station requires .mxf files with the file embedded as a 708 stream, to play on their Grass Valley K2 vid

We are trying to close caption our telecasts. We get the captioning files done out of house, pull them back into Premiere, and then embed them. The TV station requires .mxf files with the file embedded as a 708 stream, to play on their Grass Valley K2 video servers. We have tried multiple scenarios and cannot get the captions to display.
Whenever I export, it becomes a 608 stream, and will not play on their servers.

Hello there,
I'm sorry to hear you are having a problem. Thank you for taking the time to post here.
Here are some questions:
1. What version of PPRO are you using? MAC or WIN?
2. Is the caption data you are embedding a 708 caption stream?
3. When you re-import the MXF with captioning embedded back into PPRO, does it show 708 closed captions in PPRO?
PPRO will embed 708 caption streams to MXF -- I just did this, re-imported the embedded MXF to PPRO, and I see the captions in the MXF.
If you could share one of your files with me, I could take a look.
Take care and thanks again,
CM

Error message ''Disk Full' when trying to export with CS6, works fine in 5.5

I get an error message when I try to export media in Premiere CS6 that I don't have in CS5.5
I use export media for a AVCHD 60fps sequence with a few photoshop images on top of the main track. In the export settings I choose ''match sequence settings'' which gives me a .mpeg I- frame, 1920 x 1080 P, 60fps, quality 50, and a I tick the ''use maximum render quality'' check box at the bottom.
It used to work fine but now I get a message: Disk Full where there is 1.5 TB free on the disk?
I have the exact same sequence made in Premiere Pro CS 5.5 and it exports fine.
It started to act weird after I used the queue for the first time and it went to the CS6 encoder.
Since I used that once and it gave me that message for the first time, even when I try to do the same thing directly in Premiere CS6 , I always get the same error message.
Question 2, is there a place to change the settings from 50 to 100 for the quality of this export profile?
By the way I can export with other profiles without problems but this setting is the only one that I've seen that lets me keep my 60 frames per second in the export
process. (Example: I can export this sequence in the H.264, 1920 x 1080, 30fps, high quality preset, using the maximum render quality in CS6)

Hi Guys,
Thanks for the input but if you read my message correctly and until the end I already can export to other settings and I want an answer to this problem. There's no logical explanation to why this suddenly wouldn't work with the same sequence that it used to do fine with and that CS 5.5 handles fine.
As I said earlier this is the only setting that lets me export my sequence with the 60 fps, that I know of, for further and easier manipulation. As my main camera provides me with these 60 fps I'd really like to be able to have them left in that transition phase and, no, I'm not gonna give up until I know, really, what's going on and solve that problem. If this is a bug it needs to be fixed, if not I want to know what's happening.
Also there's no answer to my question 2: Question 2, is there a place to change the settings from 50 to 100 for the quality of this export profile?
So for you experts out there the question is still hanging.

Importing P2 .mxf files with audio into AE CS4

I hope this isn't the ultimate newbie question but, I have been working with After Effects for a few months but haven't need audio until now. Is there a different process for importing/exporting with audio? I have brought in the P2 video file but I don't think there is audio attached to it. When I export to a QT file, there is definitely no sound? Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Kevin

"FAQ: How can I play or preview sound (audio)?"
To make sure that you're importing the P2 audio essence files, follow the instructions here: "Import assets in Panasonic P2 format"

How do I stop Illustrator automatically adding numbers to file name when exporting with artboard?

I need to export with artboard. Illustrator automatically adds a number to my original file name. It won't even let me replace the old file. It is extremely annoying and makes flow with other programs really hard because they can't auto update, since the file name changes. When you have multiple files, you can't be manually renaming all the time. Anyone knows how to fix this? Thanks.

This has been discussed a few times, and here is a summary of the usual solutions.
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2989508#2989508
What is it EXACTLY you are trying to do. Are you trying to export a single page from filename.ai and make it filename.psd, (without any number afterwards). In that case you could delete the extra artboards prior to export, and then you won't have to checked use artbaords as there is only one page. Otherwise I would plan ahead so your end result will be filename-01.jpg, filename-02.jpg, and then everytime you use export artbaords those names will replace.
I am happy with the function as is, and would prefer to have a serial number automatically after the name when checking use artboards. But sounds liek you and others desire more options and thte ability to turn off adding to the filename.

HELP! What are the settings to export with the highest quality (I will show my project in a cinema.)

Hello,
I have a project I will be showing at a local cinema, and I need to have the best possible quality for that......
My source footage is SD, so I am exporting it as a MPEG2-DVD project, the first time I exported (with the default MPEG2-DVD settings) and burned it, it looked good (at least on my 34" TV) but I am not sure if that quality will be as good when projected on a cinema screen...
So, what I need to know is, which of the MPEG2-DVD export settings I must change in order to get the quality I am looking for.....
BTW I am using Adobe Premiere CS4 and the whole Creative Suite 4....
Thanks in advance
Al

If it looks good on your tv it will look good at the cinema.
The resolution will still be 720x480/576 if a dvd player is hooked up to the projector.

Videos export with purple/green artifacts/splotches/flashes with Media Encoder CC but export fine with Premiere Pro CC?

I use Premiere Pro CC to edit videos, and videos render fine when I export through Premiere Pro, but when I try to use Media Encoder CC, the video exports with weird splotches of green/purple artifacts all throughout. It almost looks like the video is glitching and having a seizure of green and purple. No idea why this happens. Could anybody help me? I use Media Encoder to export bulks of videos at a time through its queue feature, which is why I prefer to use Media Encoder for video exporting.
Please and thanks.

Mitch,
I was hoping that you and others might have some insight as to whether the purple and green artifacts / splotches seen in the attached screenshots (taken from 4 consecutive frames here but occurring through the entirety of the clip) could possibly have resulted from exporting video with ~ Premiere Pro CS5 or 6 ? As seen below, these splotches alternate back and forth between purple and green in every consecutive frame. I was also hoping that someone might know if this is a relatively common type of artifact and how it is caused.

The single quotes used for CLERK are causing the issue most probably.

Two single quotes(not double quotes) in the place of one single quote for CLERK.

During the rendering of complex FCPX mac crashes and I have to force a restart.
I also happens when I try to export movies with Motion 5.
Does anyone have the same problem with my new iMac?

Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
First, empty the Trash.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it, then drag or copy it — do not type — into the Terminal window:
find . $TMPDIR.. $ -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 -o -acl $ 2> /dev/null | wc -l
Press return. The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
The output of this command, on a line directly below what you entered, will be a number such as "35." Please post it in a reply.

Can't export with alpha channel - Again!!!,

So, I have an intro that is designed as an overlay of the incoming video. The objects move out the way to reveal the video underneath. BUT, when I export the sequence the resulting movie has black in the background.
Now, I had this issue several months ago, and after tons of research and trial and error, all of a sudden it worked when I came back to Motion on another project. No explanation. It just worked.
Usually, I have the background set to Transparent and then export using Lossless and Alpha. Works fine. Well, not today. I've changed every export setting under the sun trying variations of Lossless with Alpha and also tried the Animation codec. No luck.
So, what is going on? Any thoughts?

Thanks for your help Patrick. I tell ya, I can't believe what's going on. As I said, this project until today has not caused me any issues what-so-ever. The other six sessions are totally fine. I also created a quick project with the same settings added text - then exported using the same settings I've used before, and it exports with the proper alpha channel.
Yet, I rebooted the Mac, made sure to delete old versions in the trash can and everything. Still, no alpha.
To keep moving forward, I literally had to use a color key in FCP to cut out the background color.
Crazy!
