Q: AVC Coding to h.264 Last frame first problem

There is a funny bug when transcoding a AVC Coded clip to H.264 where the last from of the clip ends up in the first frame position and then the rest of the clip is coded in proper sequence. Obviously a real nuisance when doing many clips. I think this is something to do with AVC rather than compressor as I've seen the same issue when using AME. Thanks.

    What is interesting is if I send the clip to Compressor from a project in FCP and apply a preset in Compressor all is fine. If I drag the clip onto a Droplette, which is what I want to do, and that Droplette uses the same preset, I get the last frame first problem.

    In Compressor, go to Preferences, to the Advanced section, click the "Update Droplet" button.

     

    If that doesn't work, use the "Reset Queue" button, and Cancel all process, AND do it again to Repair Compressor.

     

    Otherwise, I'd kill that Droplet, and recreate it.
