  Horizontal distortion during movement

  Posted by Chaz Shukat on December 10, 2009 at 7:56 pm

  Hi, I’m log & transferring P2 footage off of a HD into my FCP. The director tells me it was shot DVCPRO HD 1080p24. When it comes into the FCP it shows as DVCPRO HD 1080p30. Why do you think that is? Director is sure it’s 24p.

  I have a feeling this has something to do with the fact that there is horizontal tearing/distortion whenever there is movement in the frame.
  This only appears in the viewer. It plays fine when I watch it in the timeline. What am I doing wrong? And is there any way to transcode it to ProRes 422 while transferring it in without round-tripping it out to Compressor afterwards?

  Thanks so much.
