  • quick question about frame frame indicator.

    Posted by Christopher Tegg on January 31, 2013 at 7:55 pm

    I have been using the drop frame indicator as a way to tell if my footage is 50fps in a 25fps project.

    It was going yellow for ages indicating the 50fps footage and was useful. Now it has stopped. Why?

    Any ideas?

    Thanks.

    Christopher.

    I’m not sure that this ever worked that way — maybe your system was dropping frames from the 25fps playback before?

    If I bring 59.94 fps footage into a 29.97 fps sequence, I see the green light all the way.

    You could use labels for your 50fps footage — color-coding them and making them selectable as a group.

    The dropped frame indicator indicates if frames are being dropped during playback.
    Putting a 50 fps clip in a 25 fps sequence should play green, they are not dropped frames. Unless you are really dropping frame during playback.
    Hope that makes sense.
