General
Supported and Unsupported Transitions
and Effects
The information in this
section indicates how AAF data, transitions, and effects map to Flame data,
transitions, and effects. There are three levels of support that
can be indicated for each:
- Translated: Parameters from the AAF file
are read and translated as Flame Soft Effect Parameters.
- Converted: The effect type is converted
without parameters from the AAF file to a Flame Soft Effect
or Transition. Some effects are recreated with a similar effect.
Some are only recreated as an empty effect.
- Not supported: The effect is not supported
and replaced by a comment or by a default transition or effect.
In addition, the following
restrictions must also be taken into account:
- Only flattened Photoshop (.psd) files
are supported (layered files will be imported as flattened in Flame).
- Only RGB material is supported, not RGBA.
- Graphics files of resolutions bigger
or smaller than the timeline are imported as Center/Crop mode only.
- AAF files that contain MP3 media files
cannot be relinked on Flame for Linux, since the MP3 file format
is not supported on Linux.
- Nested effects are not supported.
- All video and audio tracks for each sequence
must be imported.
