Using Cinema Tools, under the file menu Export — Converted EDL — 24fps from 30 fps, then select the EDL file to be converted.

hi well i found this but the .edl files are grayed out?
opened a new data base
file export converted edl 24 from 30 navigate to edls but they are greyed out

If the files are greyed out, Cinema Tools is not seeing them as edl. If you control click on the edl files and “get info” what do you learn about them?
Can you open them in a text editor?

I have been having this same problem with Cinema Tools and Avid EDLS. I have been trying to convert some 30fps EDLs to 24fps for online and they are grayed out. FCP imports them, but Cinema Tools won’t. The files open in Text Edit fine and the only real difference from FCP EDLs is the top few lines, but all the events look fine. Anyone have a solution, or at least know what to look for to see a problem in Text Edit?
As of now I have been working around this by importing the EDLs as 30fps into FCP, then making new 30fps ELDs and then converting the new FCP 30fps EDls in Cinema Tools. Pain in the butt.
Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry for breathing life into this old thread.
I’m currently having problems with Cinema Tools not recognizing EDL’s.
Did anyone find a solution?Thanks,
