  • Can FCPro 5 Handle DVCPRO HD ?

    Posted by Max Jackson on June 30, 2011 at 10:26 am

    Hi CC,

    I’ve got a project that requires 15 fps and FCPro 5 is the only thing that might work for the project.

    Before erasing my entire computer I was hoping to know if FCPro 5 can handle DVCPRO HD (1080i60), Linear PCM, Timecode fomrat.

    Is that so?

    Thanks a bunch for any feedback. 🙂

    Yes.
    No problem.

    Dvcpro HD is fine. 15fps won’t work.

    What are you trying to do?

    Edit full res/frame size/rate.
    Export “Current settings”
    THEN,

    Compress for delivery.

    Hi everybody,

    My footage was shot at 30 fps, but with double frames. I’m not sure what the technical term is, but it’s like 1/1, 2/2, 3/3, etc. because my final cut is going to be in 15 fps, almost like a flipbook.

    I can’t edit in 30 fps and then change speeds for audio matching-sake.

    However, I’ve managed to get Premiere to interpret the footage though, so I’m most likely going to go with that instead just because my project is so left field.

    Thanks a bunch for all your feedback! 🙂
