Re: HELP! OMF Import Issue

["Russ Grycza" <RGBavidDS(at)buckeye-express.com>]

Hey Rick -

 

I've never worked with omfs myself, but I seem to remeber some emails regarding omfs that were coming back set to audio sample rate rather than the video frame rate. If I'm not mistaken they had to opened inside audio containers.

 

Does any of this make sense? I could be totally messed up!

Subject: HELP! OMF Import Issue

A project was off-lined at my shop in FCP and sent to Audio Post House as OMF file.

 

They are working on Pro Tools and it opened fine and they did all mixing.  I have asked them

to send the final mixes ( 33 x :30 ) back as an OMF as I was under the impression that my

new Nitris could import OMF audio. 

 

I just did a test of the same file that was sent to them and no joy.  When I open OMF tool and try to import, I get a message that says the "Video Rate" does not match current sequence, Do I want to import anyway?

 

The OMF was done at 48K / 24 bit / 29.97.      I have set those same settings to my new sequence.  It is just a Standard Def Digi Beta project.

 

Any help is appreciated on this as I am supposed to be doing this in an hour.

 

( Otherwise, back to horse and buggy.  33 x :30 as .wav files with 2 beep. )

 

AAAAAAAARRRRGGGGGRRRRRRR.

 

THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
