  Time line wont play the sequence?

  Posted by Vasja Mihelcic on December 6, 2012 at 4:29 pm

  Hello.

  I was manipulating with frames in Cinema tools to get smooth slow motion effect. From 59,98fps went to 23,98fps. After going back to fcp 7 i could play the clip in preview, but not on the time line. ..it moves 3 frames and stops. I tried different time line settings. Time line is set on clip settings: 1280×720 24fps…There is a catch but i have a block, it has to be simple as cake…i just forgot long time not used fcp.

  thx for any help

  What are the clip settings? Codec? What are the timeline settings?

  I exited the FCP 7 program and now it works fine…I could not do it before because i was exporting.
  I happend while using cinema tool for smooth slow motion. Preview worked fine, when putted on time line was just stucked.

  clip: 1280 x 720 24fps H.264
  Time line: HDV 720p 24 i also tried several other settings.

  Thanks for taking interest in my problem…

  [Vasja Mihelcic] “clip: 1280 x 720 24fps H.264”

  BUZZZZZZZTT! Don’t use H.264 clips in FCP. EVER. Transcode to ProRes. If you want to edit H.264 native, use Adobe Premiere Pro.
