Recording -24 hours?

Postby red_ollie » Wed Sep 08, 2010 09:19

Hi

When recording locked to incoming timecode, the clips end up with the timecode stamp -24 hours (-1 as it says next to the timestamp of the clip).
I've looked at the PCs date etc, can't find the problem.
Have to paste the clips to the correct timecode and render new files to give to clients, very boring.

Thanks

Hi Ollie,
Did you update PMX?

I've had Bwav timestamp problems after doing updates, solution was doing an uninstall and then installing the new version from scratch..

See you at Ozzfest next weekend I think?...

I just saw this thread, and know what causes the problem. Sorry for the late reply.
I found that Pyramix jumps to the nearest instance of the current timecode, so let's say for example that timecode coming in is at 22:00 hours, and your project is currently sat at 00:00 in the timeline.
When you hit "chase", Pyramix in this instance will jump BACKWARDS two hours to 22:00 because it is closer than jumping forwards twenty two hours to reach the time - and this backwards jump means it is now in the "previous day".
This confused me for quite some time. Simple answer is to place the project timeline near the current timecode before hitting "chase".

Thank you for the reply.
I had done updates, even a complete re-install, and still the same problem, a real pain, as other DAWs just see it as not being timestamped!
Thats great I'll, do some tests.

Many Thanks
