AAF audio only export using Pro Tools Render setting

PostTue Sep 28, 2021 7:26 pm

Hey All!
First post here! Is exporting an AAF limited in the free version?

I received an AAF from a client for a 1 hour show. They left the video in their AAF export and I was unable to import it into my Fairlight Dream workstation. No worries, I've got DaVinci here! I was able to load the AAF, strip the video and then render the new AAF (using the Pro Tools setting - No video, Wave format, Linear PCM Codec).....but when I import the AAF into my Fairlight Dream, most of the audio is missing (I also tried to pull the new AAF into Resolve with the same outcome). Do I need to hit the manual on this because something isn't set up right somewhere (I did read the Manual about Pro Tools export)? Or is this just a limitation of the Free version of Resolve? BTW, I did find a document of the differences between the free and paid versions, but it was from version 15 and did not address this:

Thanks for any help!

Thanks Peter! I made the aaf from the deliver page. Is there another way to make an aaf?

Edit page, select the timeline in the media pool, right click, export AAF
or from file menu.

I suggested from deliver as after a render the AAF might have updated if you had moved clips in the timeline,.
