Re: CHANGING SEQUENCE START TIMECODE

[Ryan Collier <rcollier(at)postcentral.com>]

Maybe I'm missing something, but why not ripple your program to 58:20:00, so your sequence starts at that time - then ripple it to 1:00:00:00, turn off ripple, and add your bars at 58:20:00 then tack on your slate, black, and countdown? You can also trim your timeline to media, if you desire.

Then everything will be in place and your show will start at 1:00:00:00 on your timeline with all your media rendered and ready for layoff...

Starts at 58:30.  I need it to start at 58:20.  The documentary is for PBS and they have very strict standards.  60 secs of bars, 28 secs of slate, 2 secs of black,  10 seconds of countdown.  My first frame of video starts at  1:10.  I  think I just need to create a new sequence(keeping the same preferences) and have the code start at 58:20.  I should just be able to drop in the original sequence(making sure all tracks are patched right) .  If it doesn’t work,  I’ll just place all the blame on you.  Just kidding bro..thanks for the help

when you drop in the sequence, one of your video tracks must be going to the wrong track, changing
the way DS sees the render, carefully check your track patching, that should fix the unrender part.
and is the new seq, the same parameters as the original one.

what tc does it start at now..?

I don't think this is possible.  I need the Documentary I am working on to begin exactly at 1 hour.  I created a new Ds sequence with the correct starting timecode but when I drop sequence the original sequence into the new sequence I then have to render the whole deal which seems odd to me. 

Anyway, like usual any help is much appreciated

Happy Monday
