Exporting SourceMob video essence using SourceClip length

Open ginwakeup opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Hello, I am exporting video essence from SourceMobs. Everything works fine exception for a little detail. The startTime between the SourceMob and the SourceClip is different, therefore their length is different as well. The SourceClip length depends on how much the artist adjusted the clip in the Avid session, while the SourceMob shows the full clip length, ignoring length adjustments, which means it contains frames I don't want to export from the aaf.

Example > The sourceMob has length 2800 and the sourceClip has length 2750, since its startTime is set at 50 frames of the sourceMob.

Is there a way to grab the SourceClip "trimmed" video essence instead of the full essence from the SourceMob? I couldn't find it.

Sorry for the late reply, I'm not sure I follow. Are you able to share code and samples?
