how to change project settings after footage is all cut up
hi all i created a 720p 24fps project in cs5 to edit footage of that type with the occasional 1080p clip (which it scales down automatically) but now ive decided that i want to use only the 1080p clips in this particular project.
All of the 1080p clips are cut up on the 720p timeline but i dont know how to now change the settings of this project from 720p to 1080p without creating a new sequence and dragging the old one into that (if i do that then the clips dont fill the screen as they had already been scaled down to 720p automatically in the previous sequence)
thanks

Hiya…
Make a new sequence with the settings you want….
then select all in your orig seq and copy and paste to the new seq.

I am having some type of problem. We tried creating a new sequence, and cutting-pasting, however, after we did this, there is now a gap (it shows black) between the clips (the ends of the clips are now marked with gray diagonal lines). We tried to solve by shrinking and extending clips, to no avail. Do you know how to avoid this?

hmmm
your new sequence has the same frame rate as your source footage?
that might cause that…

Yes, the new sequence has same frame rate as source footage and now there are gaps in-between the clips that we can’t seem to fix.

WHat was the frame rate of the old seq?

24p was the frame rate of old sequence. The new sequence is 30.

It’s likely that mismatch is the culprit.
In your new sequence…if you double click a clip to load it into the source viewer. Where do the In and out markers fall?
is your material still marked they way you intended?
Also compare the Clip Duration in the new sequence versus the old one.
I think you’ll find that it is considerably longer in the new sequence than in it’s origin.
Do they have a resolution preset with a frame rate that matches your old seqeunce?
if so that may be the shortest path to getting you where you need to go.
