Re: Surround botch

You're confusing ADAT with TOSLINK. Optical S/PDIF is carried over TOSLINK and uses the same connector, but is definitely not ADAT. It can carry a 5.1 signal encoded as AC-3 or DTS, or uncompressed...

Re: ProTools continuous scrolling with 144Hz monitor

Does that Mac even support higher than 60Hz on external displays?

Re: Cedar dns 1 and apple silicone

Spoke to Cedar at a trade show, and it is running under Rosetta 2. Native support is planned.

Re: M1 Silicon MacPro Monterey and T-Tap issues

More specs about your machine might be helpful, but I think you’d have more luck contacting AJA.

Until they support T-Tap officially you’re going to potentially have issues. It might be worth...

Re: Dolby Vision/Dolby DAPS on a Budget

Ah I wasn't aware of that - last time I looked in my copy of Resolve Studio it mentioned a license - good to know.

My point was even calibrating an OLED takes a certain amount of knowledge and an...

Re: Dolby Vision/Dolby DAPS on a Budget

Unless you know a lot about grading and can aford a very expensive reference monitor and associated Dolby hardware, I'd give up on the notion of Dolby Vision.

Re: Avid proves yet again how useless they are

They released the beta on day 1! Shame Fairlight sucks. I love Resolve, but Fairlight is the weak spot.

Re: M1 and video

Check Blackmagic support for M1 on their site and see what drivers there are.

Re: M1 and video

You’re confusing an eGPU with a video IO card from Blackmagic or AJA.

Re: Reels!

Why did they want it in 2 channel configurations? Odd they wanted film order when DCPs are SMPTE channel order.

Re: Dante for Atmos

If you're running off SSD or a fast NAS or RAID I see no reason to run from a separate drive, but it did used to be one of the first things to fix if you were getting issues. Mainly due to spinning...

Re: Video sync drift

If you're getting serious drift, there could be something else at play. Lots of people use AJA and BM cards without a Sync HD without serious drift. Yes a fully genlocked system will be the tightest,...

Re: the QuickTime wrapper failed to load

H.264 IS AVC. The problem here was the video was H.265/HEVC which Pro Tools doesn't yet support.

Re: Quality control of LtRt

Yeah it was called Dolby Surround. Are you sure all the films being scanned are LtRt mixes? I work with a lot of archive material from the 50s through to the 90s, and it's mostly mono with a bit of...

I'm *almost* certain that's how it works anyway - can try and find the documentation.

Re: Time Shift Plug-In fps change

Elastique AAX will take care of everything, but do it in 2 separate internal processes, but the end user it looks like one process.

There's also Elastique V2 which only deals with pitch. For SRC...

Re: Time Shift Plug-In fps change

Get Elastique Pitch and/or Elastique AAX. Process on stems, not a full mix.

Re: How to transfer 32bit float into session without clipping

Re: How to transfer 32bit float into session without clipping

Is the audio embedded in the AAF? If so it won’t be higher than 24-bit so the 32-bit workflow won’t help you. It was probably recorded at 16 or 24-bit too. Does the waveform look clipped in RX? If it...

Re: Aja vs Blackmagic - current state of play in Pro Tools on Catalina/new Mac Pro

In a lot of cases it's just as good as a referenced system. Given you won't have it in your Atmos workflow I wouldn't worry too much.

On the drivers front, both BM and AJA are very stable these...

Re: Aja vs Blackmagic - current state of play in Pro Tools on Catalina/new Mac Pro

I'm guessing you'll be using the Dolby Audio Bridge to send audio from Pro Tools to DAPS? If so you won't be able to use your Sync HD, so don't worry about Video ref.

For almost all workflows it's...

Re: Aja vs Blackmagic with Video Slave/PT - current state of play

I believe VideoSlave plays nice with both. It certainly does with BM. Although Pro Tools is pretty good these days!

Re: Codecs & Catalina (what are you using?)

Premiere Pro, Resolve and plenty of others manage to implement their own QT export options so Avid should be more than capable of it!
