while the edit is at 30 fps, that source is not a potential candidate. Whether or not Smoke relinks the
considered source to the edit has nothing to do with the frame rate of the sequence.
But, if you are importing an FCP sequence, Smoke timewarps the edits so that they match the frame rate of
the imported sequence. For example, an FCP sequence @60fps contains edits @50fps: Smoke timewarps the
edits to 60 fps as it imports the sequence. Whether or not edits are relinked to their sources has nothing to
do with this: if Use Frame Rate is enabled, Smoke only relinks the above edits if the sources are matching
the edits' original frame rate, in this case 50fps.
EDL Import Options
Media Options
Link to Files button Enable to create a sequence with segments that link to the original media. Disable to
import an unlinked sequence. Only applies to DLEDL.
Consolidate on Import button Enable to limit the handles to the amount specified in Maximum Handles.
Only applies to DLEDL.
Maximum Handles field Displays the maximum number of handles (head and tail) allowed for each event
in the sequence. If the sequence also sets the amount of handles, the application imports the sources using
the lowest number of handles set between Maximum Handles and the sequence. Editable. Only applies to
DLEDL.
Save Sources Separately button Enable to import each source referred by the sequence, and to save them
in a Sources folder. Only applies to DLEDL.
EDL Options
EDL Frame Rate box Select the frame rate applied to the imported EDL. Defaults to the project's.
EDL Conversion button Enable to convert the EDL to another frame rate using the settings defined by the
Conversion box.
Conversion box Select the option that corresponds to the type of conversion that you want to apply to
the EDL. The conversion scripts that appear in this list depend on the frame rate of the EDL you are loading.
Fix Timewarp Match Frames Errors button Enable to fix match frame errors. When you import an EDL
that contains dissolves or timewarps, a match frame error may occur. This can cause an unwanted cut at
the point where the timewarp begins in your EDL. Match frame errors occur when the in point of the second
edit in a dissolve is not the same timecode as the out point of the previous shot.
Pulldown Removal button Enable to remove 2:3 pulldown when loading the EDL. The resulting sequence
is @ 23.976 or 24 fps, depending on the setting of the Pulldown Original FCM box.
Pulldown Original FCM box Select the Frame Code Mode that matches the EDL that you are loading. If
you are loading multiple EDLs, the same mode is used for all of them.
Multi-Assemble button Enable to assemble into one sequence multi-selected EDLs. In the imported sequence,
each EDL will appear on a different video track, based on the selection order.
If you drag-and-drop a folder with multiple EDL, it creates either a single video track sequence or a single
sequence with multiple video tracks, based on the Multi-Assemble option. With Multi-Assemble enabled,
the alphabetical order defines the video track assigned to each EDL.
Varicam button Enable if the EDL is links to material with a Varicam. You must also select a frame rate
from the Varicam Frame Rate box.
