Activity Forums Apple Final Cut Pro Legacy slow playback

  • Posted by Sophie Carapet on October 11, 2008 at 5:00 pm

    Good evening cows,

    I’m having a problem with some footage i got using a screen capture app.
    I captured at a rate of 30 fps. Ive put it into fcp and rendered but playback is really slow.

    is there anyway to change the settings -For this clip only-, so i can paste it into another film that runs at a normal capturespeed?

    my copy of final cut is set to dv pal usually.

    Thanks for all our help…
    Sophie.

    What is the exact frame rate and frame size of the file?

    Sophie,

    If you’re in NTSC land video runs at 29.97, not 30fps. You should probably use that screen capture program again…
