Nested sequences
The plug-in builds the master composition from the nested sequences recursively (because Avid
Xpress does not support linking to the nested sequences). Therefore, in the AAF file, there’s no linking between the
master composition and the nested sequences.
Titles
The plug-in converts titles to offline media in Avid Xpress.
Bin hierarchy
Avid Xpress places all items into a single bin. Projects with multiple bins convert into one bin.
Graphic files
The plug-in saves a reference to all original files, but compatibility in Avid Xpress is limited to the
formats that it supports. (See the Avid Xpress documentation for information on supported graphic file formats.)
Project elements
The plug-in converts synthetic clips, such as Bars and Tone, Black Video, Color Matte, and
Universal Counting Leader to offline media in XDV.
Sequence and clip markers
The plug-in converts all sequence markers, except the sequence In and Out markers, to
locators on the timecode (TC1) track in Avid Xpress. The Chapter, URL, and Frame Target fields are not converted
because there are no equivalents in Avid Xpress. The plug-in converts clip markers to segment markers in Avid
Xpress.
Note:
The AAF Export plug-in ignores markers located beyond the end of the sequence.
Current-time indicator position
In the exported file, the current-time indicator retains its original position if it is
within the duration of the sequence. Otherwise, the plug-in places the current-time indicator at the end of the Avid
Xpress sequence.
Grouped clips
Upon import, all grouped clips are ungrouped and treated separately.
Transitions and effects
Transitions and effects exported from Adobe Premiere Pro to the AAF format are identified
uniquely in Avid Xpress. For a table of supported transitions and effects, see the Adobe website.
About Project Manager
The Adobe Premiere Pro Project Manager can help facilitate an efficient workflow by performing two functions:
reducing the storage needs of a project, and consolidating the files associated with a project.
The Project Manager reduces a project by creating a new version of the project, called a
trimmed project
. In the
trimmed project, file references have been modified so that the project refers only to the portions of the footage items
that you used in sequences. You can instruct the Project Manager to copy the relevant portions of the source media
files to serve as the trimmed project’s source files; or you can have the trimmed project list the footage items as
offline, so that you can capture them from videotape. (The latter method is useful when employing an offline/online
editing workflow, in which you replace low-quality footage used for editing with high-quality footage used for
export.) Using either method, you reduce storage requirements by using only the media you need to create and
export the sequences in the project; you can archive or delete the original source media.
The Project Manager can also help you consolidate, or
collect
, a project. Collecting files copies the current project
and all of its associated media files to a single location. You can use this feature to gather a project’s source media files
when they are stored in various locations, and to prepare a project for sharing or archiving.
When you create a trimmed project and source files, keep the following things in mind. The Project Manager copies
only portions of source footage used in sequences. However, you can specify the number of extra frames, or
handles
,
the new footage includes, so that you can still make minor edits in the trimmed project. The new footage retains the
timecode and reel number of the original captured footage. If one or more subclips shares frames with another
subclip, the Project Manager creates a footage file that contains only those shared frames. The Project Manager also
copies the still image sequences used in the original project. Still images, titles, offline clips, and generated footage,
such as color bars and counting leaders, are also retained, but not trimmed.
