DPX EDL import is perfect on first open, but screwed up upon re-open?

Has anyone ran into something similar?

DPX files imported into Color via EDL. Everything is perfect. I close the project and re-open it, and some clips have stretched to fill up the whole timeline. If I scrub along, I only get a few jumbled frames over and over. Reconform does nothing. I have to delete the project and import the EDL from scratch.

Thoughts?

Not sure what the cause was, but the issue was that the EDL frame rate didn't match the footage frame rate and project frame rate.

It appears that color is flaky if the 3 import frame rates aren't exactly the same. That included mixing 23.98 with 24.

Hope this helps someone.
