No idea what the reason is, but something alike was discussed some time ago. If the offset is constant, you can now use QTchange to do an offset to the BWF timestamp. (In frames, milliseconds or even samples.)

Just for fun, how are they syncing? What software? And are they creating the sync files as new renders, adding stuff like LUTS, or is the link just in metadata (new sync clips in bins pointing to video / audio) What I find puzzling, if they sync, they probably omit the cam sound. (Very little cams shoot MOS afaik), so how hard can it be to omit the unwanted channels?

Mea Culpa, I had totally forgotten about this. But, it's done now. Latest version of QTchange will allow you to set values in seconds/partial seconds or samples. (Besides timecode, but that is crude as one TC frame @ 24 fps represents 2000 samples.) Free update for existing users. (not many, if even one on this forum I think.)

Cause it sadly turned out to be troll bait.

In all cases, become friends with an operator at the local theatre, and get time for screeners. (Make a couple of test files to see if the audio mapping is correct, and how the colors / levels turn out.) Setting up a home DCP player is a hell, as there is no simple way of calibrating the whole stuff. Once you've got a winning team, document it, and save a couple of frames as a reference. (The next version of yadda WILL change / break something, it's always like that....)

Sorry, but making a DCP requires some knowledge about color space and how to convert that to proper XYZ. If you do it wrong you will end up with either overexposure and crushed blacks, or vice versa, grey black and grey white. (I've made a hundred or so, I used a very nice affordable package that is unavailable now due to the fact that the developer suddenly was beamed out of this world.)

Quit it now. I've started this thread, and I would like to end it as well. It's not funny anymore.

Is my American English so bad or is this indeed gibberish? (Assuming gibberish is American as well as British.) Fact is, the difference between a freedom fighter and a terrorist is if America backs him / her / them / they

Over here it's said that Hitler was caught bringing the Musk salute.

I hate it when I have to explain my jokes.... Trump wants to rename the Gulf of Mexico, So i renamed the US, and gave two options for the new name.

Easy for you to say, you don't live there 🙂

I wish you the best of luck, you're gonna need it.

Trump indeed does not care, yet. He'll fix that first. (You did not interrupt my holiday, I'm bored as hell...) Science reveals: People believe anything if it's preceded by Science reveals:

Hi Mikisuke, It's a problem in a lot of apps that 'known' files have 'sticky' metadata. Avid (owner of PT) keeps a database with metadate that is hard to update. A forced (re) import can be needed. Renaming the assets is one option, but I'm not a ProTools guy. (I used to be a video editor, I know a lot about media composer...) I'll alter QTchange when I'm back from holiday, that will be end of this week. (Sitting in the south of Portugal now, nice sunny weather 🙂 But, another solution would be to just wait it out, Trump will fix it! Bouke

First, I have no clue on how this could happen, but QTchange is able to batch change (add positive or negative offset) all files of an entire feature in a matter of seconds. However, since it was originally based on QuickTime files only, the interface accepts only timecode to offset. If needed, I can add milliseconds or samples to make it more accurate. Just ask...
