    Do you want to slow down the footage or just the original footage in 50p? Because If you want to change the speed of the clip. You can change the 50p to 25p in Cinema Tools.

    Thanks guys. The material I’m tackling is h264 1280×576 sq 50p from a dslr.
    The finished product should be DV PAL 25(i). I’ll get there, eventually…

    First of all than I think you have to convert the h.264 to ProRes to edit it. Don’t try to edit the H.264 file.

    Use MPGStreamclip to convert to Prores.
    You may try to convert the time-base (p50/i25 at the same time)

    If you have access to an AJA Kona board, it’ll do the conversion in realtime and do it much cleaner than simply trying to let FCP do the conversion. If you just drop the 50p material into a 25i timeline in FCP, the software does not do an elegant job of making the conversion.

    As others have suggested, you need to first convert the H.264 to ProRes. We use Compressor most of the time for this and sometimes Episode Pro.

    Thank you all for great suggestions.
    Walter, I do carry a Kona LHe in my system.
    I guess you’re thinking realtime
    conversion in relation to printing to tape?

    This time the delivery will be in filemode.

    Or is there perhaps something here I’m
    not quite-a-grasping? If so, do indulge
    me.
