Cineform CS3 Project Changed at DVinfo.net

Edgar Pitts · March 18th, 2008, 10:32 AM

Greetings. We had an editing workstation crash with some Cineform Aspect projects. After the computer was rebuilt, the projects were opened and saved before Cineform was reinstalled. This was about a week ago. All of the files have since been heavily edited.

After taking a closer look at the project settings, it shows that it is a 1440x1080 project but no longer Cineform. All of the settings are greyed out. Is there a way to change back to Cineform projects? We tried created a new Cineform project and inserting the old project, but a lot of the clips have a X in the top corner with a red render bar above.

If you need some additional information, please let me know. Thanks for your help!!!

Sound like a job for support. Basically you did the right thing, you just need to determine what is wrong or different with the clips that have the red markers.

Thanks David. I will submit a support ticket. I do have a few other questions:

Is there any quality drop in continuing to edit the project as is? I assume that it will be a little slower, but will it effect our final export?

No idea, depends what is happening, but likely you will be OK.

It appears that the shots with the red bar are multi-cam.
