We are shooting our new project in Venice's X-OCN 6k raw, and it's not possible to copy and trim the media in the media management window.
We have 6 clips that size around 170Gb, and it's not possible to consolidate them trimming and copying only the used length files of the timeline.
Is this option going to be implemented any time soon for this camera codec?
I don't want to know the volume of material that I'm gonna need to handle when I'll receive the full 70 minutes first episode.

Hi
on Resolve 17, its the same problem...still not working

can I recommend to transcode teh takes you need to EXR 16b compressed with (let's say) 8 frames of handles in Slog3.cine and just use those?

Transcoding is probaby the way to go, I think you can trim them using sonys own tools but who knows

Only thing you shouldnt do ever is put any Log stuff into EXRs, you are loosing quiet a bit of precision due to the fact that exr is a half float format and not integer so you cant compare it to 16bit integer, XOCN is 16bit Linear in a integer format , so 12bit Log DPX should be plenty of bits or if you need to compress Cineform also offers a 16 bit integer format in a mov container that is rather good (also called dpx-c )

If you want the benefits of OpenEXR and its great losless PIZ compression or even lossy DWAA/DWAB consider decodig the XOCN directly into ACES or linear/Sgamut and putting that into a EXR.

You should use linear light on a exr, but considering hippos many movies i do that have exr transcoding, i don't feel that is handcuffed me in any way
