Where did my keyframes go (Neo Mac)
 

Hi,

I've installed the new flavor, Neo Mac, replacing my AspectHD that I previously had.

I was looking forward to this new release with the higher resolutions and all, but did you remove keyframe capability with the new release?

Seeing that I had this in AspectHD, I would find it very unfortunate. Especially since it was one of the most powerful features (to me), being able to shift exposure/color over time without rendering.

Please tell me it isn't gone!

They should be there. There is a minor operational difference between the Mac and the PC. On the Mac, after you add a single keyframe, then move the timeline, you need to manually add a keyframe at the new location before you can make any adjustments.

Thanks for getting back.

I got the keyframes working in my previous Aspect HD release, and I know how they work.

When I open an old FirstLight project I get the keyframes, but when I start a new FL project with the new install I don't see the keyframe "interface" below the normal sliders.

No keyframes at all: white balance, color or framing.

Unless there's a keyboard shortcut to add a first frame, I can't add one.

I guess this is a bug then?

There is no keyframe interface until you select a clip

Well... I have a clip selected....


=)

What I meant with opening a new FL-project was, that since I installed the new NeoMac version any new projects don't get keyframes.

But all old projects that already had them, still do.

There are 2 possible reasons for the keyframes controls to be invisible on the Primaries. 1) if you have a 3D clip and have selected a single eye, and 2) the source does not have the embedded frame number metadata.

Since your clip is clearly 2D, I suspect the latter. Select the "Passive" tab and open the "CineForm" group. You need to see an entry that says "Unique Frame Number" to be able to use keyframes.

Re: Where did my keyframes go (Neo Mac)
 

We're getting there. I do not see "unique frame number".

My clips from older projects (Pre NeoMac) have five items under CineForm: Timecode, LYUV, Unique Frame Number, PRCS and GUID.

My new project has 8 items: Timecode base, Reel Name, GUID, Timecode, CACT, PRCS, LYUV and CV67.

I have done nothing different during ReMaster conversion, at least not intentionally.

How come I'm missing the UFN?

All clips are from an 5D mkII with same firmware.

Re: Where did my keyframes go (Neo Mac)
 

There is nothing you can do to not include the UFN. I just tested this with the latest beta and the frame number is correctly being injected. What version of ReMaster and codec do you have?

I did an uninstall of my Aspect HD prior to installing the NeoMac.

I didn't get my download links from this forum though (the ones that you put up), but from the official CineForm page on a random visit.
