Apr 5, 2012 8:30 AM in response to dmavignierby Tom Wolsky,Curious how you're exporting from FCP to DaVinci. Which DaVinci?

Apr 5, 2012 8:33 AM in response to Tom Wolskyby dmavignier,Da Vinci resolve lite can import or load the native fcpx XML. So a round trip is possible. But not with multiclip.
-
Apr 5, 2012 9:07 AM in response to dmavignierby Tom Wolsky,That's correct. You can't send multicam to Resolve Lite unless you manually replace the clips. There is no collapse function.
-
Apr 5, 2012 9:13 AM in response to Tom Wolskyby dmavignier,Now the big question is how would you replace a clip. Is there any match frame function? When I match a frame in the event browser it will again only show me the multiclip and I can't seem to get further...

Apr 5, 2012 9:32 AM in response to dmavignierby dmavignier,I think I found the answer. Quoting from apple doc: "with the multicam clip selected in the ang
D editor, choose clip > reveal in event browser."
This makes the multicam feature almost useless for me in a more professional workflow where proper grading is required in my opinion.

Jun 14, 2012 3:15 PM in response to dmavignierby Omegamanstyle,One option - although not the best, but workable - is:
- export your FCPX project into one, self-contained movie.
- Import the movie into Resolve Lite
- Use Resolve's cut detection to locate all the cuts
Then you're ready to grade it.
When I've used Resolve's cut detection it's pretty good, but not 100%. You may have to adjust the sensitivity of the detector. And any edits it misses you can add manually after the fact.

Jun 21, 2012 2:24 PM in response to Omegamanstyleby Dave_E_P,I too would like to be able to collapse a multicam for grading in Resolve
Exporting a movie and then using Resolve (as above) doesn't work if you want to add disolves etc because you lose the handles.

Jun 21, 2012 3:37 PM in response to dmavignierby Nicholas Kleczewski,I gotta believe that finalizing multicam clips is one of the first things being updated next update... too obvious of a need there...

Jun 22, 2012 6:26 AM in response to dmavignierby andynick,Am I missing something?
Why not export the multicam clip as a self-contained movie, then re-import into your project before exporting to Resolve?

Because then you'd have no handles for disolves and other transitions?

Jun 22, 2012 6:42 AM in response to Dave_E_Pby Nicholas Kleczewski,You'd have no linkage to original timecode or clip structure. Changes and reconform would be a major pain. if its the most straightforward cut only simple project I guess it wouldn't be a big deal with cut detection, but a pretty niche scenario.

If the media's available in the original multicam clip, it can be exported in its entirity - or at least, allowing for handles.
