    Sequence too long... Avid 2018.4

    Hello,

    I'm currently getting the following error on long sequences in Avid 2018.4.0, working in Mac 10.11.6

    In past versions of Avid I would click the playlength button and this would go away. For this version, if I click the playlength button it will let me play the sequence, but as soon as I make a change to the sequence the error pops up again. Is there a workaround to make this stop popping up in this version please?

    Re: Sequence too long... Avid 2018.4

    I have seen something similar when I made a stringout of material using AutoSequence and source clips TCs stretched longer than 12 hours.

    Example: First clip has TC of 09;00:00:00 and lasts for 1 sec.  Last clip in sequence has TC of 20;00;00;00 and last for 1 sec.  Nothing in between.

    That message might come up.  Avid seems to not like a sequence longer than 12 hours.  My solution was to cut out the gaps.  Sort of sucked, but got me where I needed to go.

    Just guessing in your case.

    Hi Jef,

    Yes that's the same issue I'm having. I used to be able to use the playlength button to alleviate this problem but it doesn't seem to be working the same in this version of Avid.

    Re: Sequence too long... Avid 2018.4

    I just started getting this error after receiving an updated sequence that I imported into a working Avid project.

    I cant seem to find a fix anywhere here.
