AutoDesk Smoke :: Match Source From Timeline Behavior

Oct 5, 2012

I might be being really thick but my old method of managing clips and handles in a master was to perhaps conform from rushes with 75fr handles, save that conform but then in my wip master I would consolidate all sees down to 10fr. This way if I was sharing shots around the facility you could match a shot out (using the old match to segment preference rather than match to source) and it would respect the handles you had set in your master.

I can't seem to replicate that old behavior in 2013 smoke. It will either match to source or to just the segment without handles. How can I get it to match out with the handles I have consolidated?

AutoDesk Smoke :: Match Source Clip From Timeline

Jun 11, 2013

When matching a source clip from the new sequence area it appears that you now have to have the widget on the clip you wish to match rather than just select the clip. Is this a change in the way 'match' works or is it a bug?
 
It was always nice to just tap the clip and press match rather than now having to scrub your widget to the right layer and clip before pressing match.

AutoDesk Smoke :: Color Source To Timeline?

Feb 13, 2013

In 2012 it was very easy to select a gap segment and click color source in the soft effects. In 2013 it appears to be much more difficult, you need to create it in a folder then edit it into a sequence. Am I missing something? I wish there was a color source option in the effects ribbon.

Jul 25, 2012

Where colour source on the timeline is. I am always droping black or coloured frames into the timeline either as a background for some softFX text or even as a fill for the softFX text so I can then track that text to the background.

AutoDesk Smoke :: Re-Link To Source Footage

Nov 6, 2012

I'm using Pre Release 5 for editorial as opposed to conform and I've moved some of my source material to a different drive than I was using when I started the project.

Normally in FCP or Avid, I would just re-link to the footage and that would be that. I know this could be done with footage in the timeline, but what about plain old source footage? I can't seem to find the re-link tool.

AutoDesk Smoke :: Open As Sequence - Any Source Isn't Loading

Jul 9, 2012

I opened 33 sources as "open as Sequence" behind each other and after doing that double clicking on the source or any source isn't loading it into the source viewer. There is no icon next to the source indicating that it isn't a source. After the fourth selection was open as Sequence. the one that was opened as the first is recycled and the Sequence Icon disappears from in-front of it. So there is only four icons at any given time in the list.

AutoDesk Smoke :: Export DPX Sequence With Source Timecode?

Jun 21, 2012

I've been called upon to use Smoke as an intermediate between offline and color session elsewhere. I need to export a DPX sequence for the colorist to work from. Can I easily do this in Smoke? Just conform the offline and export DPX sequence? Also, can I put in handles and include original source timecode?

AutoDesk Smoke :: 2012 SP2 Source Area Clips?

Jun 29, 2011

I have recently upgraded to Smoke 2012 sp2 and have a small issue regarding the reordering of my clips in the source area.

On 2011 when you placed clips in the source area in a specific order and saved it to the library and when you recalled it from the library it would put the clips back in exactly the same place you left them. Now in 2012 when you do that it re-orders them in some sort of chronological order.

Is there a setting that I'm not aware of that will stop doing that as I place them in a specific structure which makes sense to me and is easy to find and understand on large builds, now I'm having to sift through the clips and waste time finding what I did last and checking through versions to find the latest one.

AutoDesk Smoke :: Editing Mono Source To Stereo Track

Jun 20, 2012

I have seen a number people new to smoke get confused when trying to edit mono audio source to a stereo track only to find the audio doesn't doesn't appear.

How about a preference that automatically splits the mono audio so that it edits to the stereo track?

If it was on by default it would definitely be of less confusion to new users

Or perhaps a dialogue box explaining why the edit did not work due to the differing audio properties.

Great work with getting smoke to where it is!

AutoDesk Smoke :: Access Timeline Within CFX

Nov 3, 2012

Is there a way to access the timeline within CFX ( much like in Flame ) ? I see the timing button but this doesn't seem to have the same control as a timeline for a specific clip.

Also, is there a way other then "explode one" or "explode all" to go within a CFX within a CFX ( pre comp ) ? i.e. a setup that is then put within the BG of action.

AutoDesk Smoke :: Match Frame With Audio

Nov 15, 2012

I use pr5. I got a clip (.mov with audio) and imported the clip and enable the cache source media so it will be transcoded into stone. Now after i edit the clip into the timeline , i want to reveal the master clip. so i select the clip and the audio as well (sync) and try to do match frame (F key). I got new clip reveal in my desktop but only the video, it got no audio. How to get the audio back from the original source ? why the match-frame is ignoring the audio ? so far i have to do silly steps by re edit the source clip back to the timeline to pair back with the audio. is this a bug ?

AutoDesk Smoke :: Match Frame Function Like FCP And MC?

Jan 9, 2013

I've tried Match Source, Match Content and Match Frame and while they do different stuff, none of them are doing what I'm expecting.

To be clear, if I organize my clips into bins for an edit, I'm hoping to hit match on a cut sequence and the Smoke will take me to that clip in the media panel, and then I would be able to look through alternate takes of the same shot. It's more useful to me for finding similar sources than making a copy of the source which is already in the timeline.

AutoDesk Smoke :: How To Export Timeline With Handles

Sep 10, 2012

I have an edit and now I want to export as DPX sequence. A couple of questions:

First, is there an easy way to take a single edit and export it with handles? I realize that I can make a subclip but is there an easier/better way to do this?

I can't find an automated way to set handles on export. I have about 175 shots that I need to export .

AutoDesk Smoke :: Copying Gap Effects On The Timeline?

Aug 24, 2011

It is possible to duplicate/copy a clip/gap effect on the timeline? Or do you *have to* drag/copy it to a Source Area first? In this particular case, I've got 3 gap effects that I'm essentially using as adjustment layers...for some reason I thought I could hold down F & drag them somewhere else in the timeline which would create a duplicate and drag them to wherever I dropped them. But maybe not...? In the meantime, I just copied them to a Source Area, and then dropped them back on the timeline where I needed them, which worked just fine.

AutoDesk Smoke :: How To Extract Section Of Timeline

Oct 25, 2012

How do you extract a section of a timeline but keep sync further down the timeline?

I wanted to take a section out near the start, it just had V and A1, A2. There was A3-6 further down the timeline but they hadn't started yet.

For some reason I can't get Smoke to cut a track that hasn't got any media before that point. So, at the section I needed to remove I couldn't place a cut and so when I removed a section A3-6 stayed where they were.

I also tried marking in to out and extract but again it left the other audio tracks.

Such a simple thing, but I can't work out how to do it
