Problems rendering timeline containing mxf files?
Video (see profile below) has been captured with a Sony PXW-X70 camcorder and imported into PrPRo CC. I create a new sequence from clip and PrPro makes a timeline using the ARRI Cinema setting. When I attempt to render the finished product (usually anywhere from 5 minutes to over two hours), there are frequently reports that one or more mxf clips have not been readable and the render fails.
Four questions: 1) Why is PrPro automatically importing the clips into a project with the ARRI setting? What is the optimum setting for a timeline containing mxf files? Is it necessary to transcode mxf files on ingest? If so, what's the best setting?
