  • HELP! Framerate problem in timeline

    Posted by Jay Burgess on June 18, 2009 at 10:08 pm

    I need help on a project ASAP (as seems to be the case most of the time someone asks a question here).

    Longtime reader first time poster.

    The framerate on the sequence somehow was changed to 23.98 instead of 29.97. When I printed to tape the footage looked awful. Copied and pasted the entire project into a new sequence with correct frame rate but now timing, audio etc. is a bit off or just messed up with jutters in sound or skips and so on.

    Big question, is there a way for me to fix my problem and timeline without having to go through the painstaking process of tweaking all my problems. This project needs to be out the door by Monday.

    Well, when you paste it from one frame rate sequence to another, the biggest thing that happens is that gaps appear in the sequence. But you say you have other issues too?

    This all has to be dealt with manually…there is no “one-button” solution to this.

    Been there brother…

    Okay,thanks for the response. I figured as much. I just hoped that maybe there was some secret solution I didn’t know. Again, thanks.
