  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Red Alert makes audio vanish from proxies

Sorry, none at the moment.
It's at the top of our priority list.

Deanan, it's been two and a half months since you posted this.
How difficult could it be to right the code to get Audio from a Quicktime proxy generated in Redalert, when the Camera can make one no problem?

If it's too much bother to fix this for now, then PLEASE remove the "make quicktime proxys" checkbox from the next camera build, so that other people do not end up in this situation.
EDIT:
I've just found that if I stick day 2's shots back onto the camera into the .RDM folder with day 2's shots, I can play them back in camera. So I'm having a cable made and we'll extract audio, make some audio files, and synch them up.
So no-one will die and my bad attitude is gone even before I had to get myself drunk. It's just a minor PITA.

I thought about doing that same thing as a temporary solution. Let me know how it works out. It would be a heck of a lot easier to be able to make QT proxies in Red Alert with the audio included.
 
So has anyone figured out how to get Compressor to not mix audio down to one track when extracting audio from the proxies to AIFF? Even when we set the AIFF settings to something that supports multiple tracks, we just get the same thing on every track. When exporting through QuickTime Player there's an option to export "discrete tracks", which does exactly what we need, but there's no such option in Compressor.
