Another MC project....and call for help

megabit wrote on 11/10/2014, 3:22 AM
As some of my friends on this board might know, due to my physical condition I hardly shoot myself anymore, but still edit my classical music DVDs using MC material provided by contractor crews. Some of the make use of TC during MC shooting, some don't care; seldom they gen-lock them (if ever)....

OK, this time the cameras are set to have been gen-locked, so I wanted to take all the clips from one of them (already in the project been), and lay them out on a singletrack using their TC...

How do I do it? There is the option to "lay across tracks using camera TC or time of the day", but I want a single track! Probably easy, but I need you help :)

Piotr, see if the script discussed in the Add clips to T/L using their timecode thread helps you.

Hi Mike,

Do you mean the script "Add clips at ruler timecode" from November 12 2010 by Gilles Pialat?

PS. OK, I made it work - thanks so much!!!

Piotr, I couldn't reply earlier as I was on my way into work. I'm glad to hear that you got it working!!
Out of curiosity, what was your solution?

Mike,

I reckon you read my "is it the right script as it doesn't seem to work here" comments before I deleted them, right? So, the answer is simple: while copying it into my own file, I somehow lost a single backslash character :) I found and corrected my mistake in no time, so I deleted my error messages report as obsolete.

Otherwise it works great.. Bob is right in that it will always add tracks rather then use selected one, but that a minor problem. So, thanks again!

I believe Piotr works with Multi-Camera shoots of concerts.
