Bookmark error

[devbParticipant]

Hi, I’m getting a message which seems to flummox me.
It’s a bookmark for a folder and path which don’t exist on my drive or project.
I’ve tried to do everything mentioned in the forums.
No luck.
Is there something I may be missing?
Thank You!

Dear Devb,

I guess two things here, firstly we would only be getting the path to that mov from the FCPXML, can you add /kinoks/Movies to the Media Locations tab in X2Pro5. If it is already there, can you remove it and re-add it, as it is possible the bookmark has gone “stale”.

Yours Sincerely

James

Hi James,

Thanks for this. I tried this a couple of times and now get another, similar message.
This is odd as I have no folder or files in that path.

I tried to import the XML to Da Vinci Resolve and seem to getting all the audio files. Though if course I would prefer using X2P to send to the sound edit team.

I’d appreciate any further thoughts.

Thanks again!

Hi Devb

Can you attach the XML you are using please and we will check the references to the assets ending _A2878.mov and DEVO 639.mov

Many thanks.

James.

Thank you!

Dear DevB,

The issue is that we are looking for the Asset R185, but cannot find it and then as there is a reference to a Proxy for the asset we look for that and cannot find that. What we see in the pop up is the error finding the Proxy.

Similarly on R107, we cannot find it, but we see in the XML a Proxy that could be used for it, and we cannot find that proxy.

So if you don’t have the Proxies, you need to make sure that we have access to, and the media exists in.

Hope the above helps.

Yours Sincerely

Hi James,

Success!!

After several (failed) attempts at re-creating Proxy files, I decided to delete all proxy, optimized, and render files in FCP. File>Delete Generated Clip Files…

This solved the issue.

I was able to open the AAF file in Logic Pro to test the export. Everything works.
Some audio tracks (dialog) which are in sync in FCP 10.7 are slightly out of sync but I’m sure the sound team can fix that.

Thanks again for your amazing support.

Best wishes,

Dear Dev,

Well done and thanks for letting us know, if you want us to look into the Sync issue we can.

Yours Sincerely

James.
