Question

Export AAF with Markers, to Pro Tools

Hi

I need to export a sequence to Pro Tools and it's very important that the timeline markers, appears on Pro Tools.

I exported in AAF and OMF, the audio tracks are OK, but no Markers.

If I export an AAF from Avid Media Composer, the Locators (this is the name in Avid for markers) appears in Pro Tools.

Both, Video and Audio edit stations are Mac based and we have a Nexis Server from Avid.

Thanks

    Sorry, @Kevin-Monahan, but this is not a useful answer as it does not address the OP's question. I, too, have the same question: How can you make Premiere export markers to its AAFs?

    Markers are part of the AAF file format, but Premiere does not write them. You can verify this by importing an AAF that Premiere has produced back into Premiere.

    Hello @F_O4336,

    Thanks for the note. The OP did not return, so the stock response is to add the User Guide page. However, you are correct that the page does not address the topic of marker inclusion. It may not be part of the feature set. We'll have to ask the product team about that. Let me try and find out for you.

     

    Cheers,
    Kevin
