29.97 clip in a 23.97 timeline
I am shooting with the Panasonic DVX100b. I shot my project in 24pA squeeze mode and I am editing on 23.97 timeline. I had to reshoot one small scene yesterday and I forgot to change my settings. So it was on 29.97 and 4:3. Is there anyway I can come in for the save and use this 10 second clip??

For a 10 second clip, you might as well try converting the frame rate in Compressor and see if the quality is to your liking.
Be sure to turn on the Frame Controls and set the retiming section to Best Quality.
Set the frame rate to 23.976 in the Encoder pane.
Use the same codec preset as the rest of your timeline.

I hate to be stupid about this..but where is the Encoder pane?

In the Inspector, click the second button from the left.
You should see something that looks like this
click the video button to change the frame rate.
The Frame Controls are found by clicking the third button from the left in the Inspector.

Thanks John…it didn’t look like that when I tried. I have to try tomorrow …running out of the studio now. But I will try again first thing in the morning.

This is for Compressor 3. The interface for earlier versions is different.
Also note, getting the frame rate converted at a dub house with a hardware converter will get you the best results…but for a 10 second clip, its worth giving Compressor a go, before spending the money.

I have the Compressor that came with the first FCP Studio.
Will I be able to do it with that version?
