  Bringing in mixed FPS rates for projects

  Posted by Ron Whitaker on April 1, 2012 at 6:41 pm

  Are there any problems when bringing in clips with varying fps rates (ie, some clips are 24fps, others are 30fps)?

  I’d like to have the final rendered project be 24fps (actually 23.967fps).

  As far as I know, no. Two things I’ve seen in similar posts:
  1. Beware of clips that are “true” 24 and not 23.97
  2. Switch all clips to Disable Resample(ing)

  I know of (1) because my Panasonic Lumix shots wonderful 720p clips but they’re at 24, not 23.97. John Rofrano has a handy dandy script here:
  https://www.johnrofrano.com/files/Fix30pMedia.cs

  You could change this line:
  if (frameRate == 30.00m)

  to be:
  if ((frameRate == 30.00m) || (frameRate == 24.00m))

  and it should correct 30 to 29.97 and 24 to 23.97

  In fact, if you add:
  // Change Smart Resample or Force Resample to Disable!
videoEvent.ResampleMode = VideoResampleMode.Disable;

  under the foreach(VideoEvent videoEvent in track.Events) loop, then not only will the script fix funky 24p clips, it will mark all clips to be “Disable Resample”.
