ReConform function is corrupting my project file

[sgodzillat]

Hi,

I have the same problem here today.
very straight forward reconform session, preview is very good. save close renders the session invalid.
I’m not sure I understood you workaround.

@BrightIdeas

However, if I leave the project timeline out of sync so my project starts at 00:00:00:00 and film is at starting at the same “physical position” on my timeline then follow the same process the project saves, closes and reopens fine! But it’s not practical as I can’t check the validity and amend edl TC info prior to performing the reconform

I will try things with this in mind… if you can clarify it would save some time
Thanks !

— EDIT
so I managed to reopen the project after reconform.
I did what I understood from your post :

• start time session 00:00:00:00
• I put the movie at TC:00 although not sync with the timeline.
• I loaded my old and new edl in reconfrom but applied -1:00:00:00: offset so edl would also start at 00:00:00:00,
  reconformed, saved reopen. Now I manually move the movie to match the shots.
  So far looks like it is working
  But yes not a process you can rely on. Still not convinced by this feature.
