Re: dialogue database in cinema tools
site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: pro-apps-dev@lists.apple.com What database are you using? Cinema Tools? FileMaker? - load in viewer - go to first frame - Reveal source file - press tab twice, press CMD-C to copy the audio TC - go to your database and paste Rainer On Jun 3, 2009, at 10:47 , jamesgarr1@yahoo.com wrote: Best regards, Jim Garrett assistant editor on The Hole --- On Tue, 6/2/09, Rainer Standke <lists@standke.com> wrote: From: Rainer Standke <lists@standke.com> Subject: Re: dialogue database in cinema tools To: "James Garrett" <jamesgarr1@yahoo.com> Date: Tuesday, June 2, 2009, 8:49 PM Hi Jim, Either way, let me know what you do once you have synched dailes.

Just out of curiosity, did you ever consider merging the clips, as in Modify/Merge Clips? Looks like one way to solve your problem is to do this with all subclips of your project: If this sounds laborious it is because it is. However, you can do all of this on the keyboard, possibly with the aid of something like Quickeys. Hi Rainer, Thanks for your quick response. Interestingly enough, when I started doing dailies for this project months ago, I sunk up the separate video and audio on the FCP timeline. Then linked the video and audio together under modify and dragged the merged clips into a bin. This worked until the editor started editing and using the dynamic trim function. The FCP would get confused because the audio was longer duration than the video clip. I then learned that I had to double clip the linked video and audio from the timeline into the viewer and make a subclip (com + u) to browser bin. This then truncated and squared off the video and audio making them both the same duration. The editor could then use the dynamic trim function. In the Avid, this is easily done for you, but in FCP it takes several steps to sync up these dailies. I would welcome you or anybody else to make this procedure more efficient. I encourage you to write an application that would fix this, however, I don't have any budget. I have already completed dailies for this project, but future projects it would be useful. It would only strengthen the FCP vs Avid debate toward FCP. This should be fixed in future versions of FCP. At the moment, I'm trying to create an audio database, so that I can hand the sound over to sound editors to do their craftwork. this is off-list. What are you doing with the dailies once you've synched them in the timeline? Do you make a merged clip? Would your problem be solved if you could import a batch list with audio time codes into Cinema Tools? If so, a possible solution is to export an XML of the merged clips, and extract a batch list out of that. If you have little bit of a budget I can make you a little application that would do that for you.
Hi,
Is there anyone out there that knows how to create an audio production track database from a separate Broadcast wave files source? I'm working on a 3D feature movie on FCP. It was shot on a 3D RED camera setup and separate TC audio wave files. I get proxie ProRes 422 (sq) video files and separate audio Broadcast Wave Files that I sync up on the timeline. I'm using FCP version 6.05. The cinema tools doesn't allow me to make an automatic database. I have to enter the TC numbers and sound roll information manually through Synchronize with Cinema Tools from the Tools menu. When I try to make a Audio EDL from Program database, there isn't any database unless I create one manually. In feature production, it is very useful to have a Audio EDL to hand over to sound editors for production track cleanup and replacement. The Current version of Cinema tools is outdated. It was created for the telecine dailies from film and audio tracks. With current production being done on digital media with separate video and audio, the cinema tools needs to be modernized.
Please let me know or point me in the right direction to correct this deficiency. I would like to be able to make an audio EDL automatically from a database that can be made automatically.
Thank you,

I have never heard or seen anything like this and I cannot conceive how it would happen.
The autosave code is identical to the normal save code. If there is a problem in one, I would expect a problem in both.
I know this is not much help. Is this happening on all yoru FCP stations, or just one specific one?

Hi
I have been experiencing some strange behavior with regards to the Auto Save function. Basically the projects saved in Auto Save are not correct, they are missing bins, clips and parts of the sequence, what is also strange is that earlier version of the same project from the same Auto Save location are more up to date and contain more info than the newer version.
Wondering if anybody had any ideas why this might be or if they have seen this kind of problem before?
