I have an interesting problem running Media Composer 2018.5.0 on Mac OSX 10.11.6 El Capitan. When I use the Source Browser and link to a TIFF file that is larger than the project size, the TIFF file comes in flipped (I would have to apply the Flip effect to make it normal). (Linking to a TIFF file of...

There is a lot of discussion on the internet when it comes to when to use an interlaced or progressive graphic file. It would be helpful if someone can provide 3 simple interlaced vs progressive tables, for the most common graphic file formats: TIFF JPEG PNG The layout of that table will be something...

Hi guys, thanks for the pointers. Yes I could import the graphic no problem, however this quite noticeably degraded its quality. Really wanted to AMA it so that would maintain the original .tiff quality straight from PS. And eventually found a bizarre way. (Anyone who has any info about why this works...

Does anyone know what the largest TIFF file size I can use in Avid for simple pan and zoom animations (resolution/data size)? I have a client that insists on not compressing still files and using large raw TIFF files for his animations. I've come into some technical walls with FCP, and am thinking...

I am resizing a TIFF image using BCC PIP. The alpha transparency is lost! Why does this happen? The whole process of resizing an image should be simple so why does AVID make it difficult? Whatever IMPORT settings I use, I can never import an image so that it maintains its aspect ratio. Always it is stretched...

I have read all the articles on the entire internet about Pan&Zoom. I know you have to click the tiny grey box, I know you have to chose "Target" to see changes, but my problem is that I don't see anything at all; it's black. Rendering doesn't help. I have MacPro with a NVIDIA...

Thanks for your time MikeyB, Just to clarify a few things. I have the time line set to full res (green mode). i realise that Avid is outputting 1 field (im playing the time line and viewing the output on a monitor, still jaggies.). The downscaling to %80 to %50 of the the original was in reference to...

Hi Guys, Any help with the following would be greatly appreciated as I have recently jumped ship from FCP to MC 5.5.3 When graphics are resized to be smaller (50% to 80% original size) there is a very noticeable loss in image quality that takes place. I realize upscaling graphics would result in pixillation...

Hello, I've recently built a raid 0 (software based) on Vista Pro. It is an 8 x 1TB Samsung F1, 7200, 32MB, raid 0. I've got 16GB of FB RAM, and a dual quad xeon 1.6 Ghz processor. The raid has had a mixed impact --- It seems to have sped up regular copy actions (e.g. folders or files) by approximately...

Hi TCurren, The main objective is to transfer video to film… we also sent a betacam tape… the TIFF Sequence would be an second option…
