When exporting a sequence from Flix to Avid and taking timing from Flix, imported panels in Avid are 1 frame too short each. To take timing from Flix aleMaintainStillsTiming parameter should be set to '1' in localParameters.yml file.
 
Steps to reproduce:
  1. Set aleMaintainStillsTiming to '1' in localParameters.yml and start Flix.
  2. Create a sequence in Flix and send it to Avid editorial.
  3. Import ALE and AFF files and link them. (For more information how to do it, check Flix documentation).
  4. Open relinked sequence in Avid.
Expected result:
  • Panel timing information in Flix matches panel timing information in Avid.
Actual result:
  • The timing of the panels is off by 1 frame each. Panels are 1 frame too short each.
 
Duration of imported sequence in Avid is 8:11 seconds:
 
 
Duration of sequence in Flix is 218/24 = 9 seconds:
