Capturing and Using HDV 24p
So here’s my situation. I don’t edit much, if at all, in 24p. However, for this weekend I’m going to be making a film in HDV 24p. Now, in Premiere I have a custom project set up for myself. It’s an HDV 1080p, 23.976, anamorphic project with a 24p timeline.
So, Can I force Premiere to capture HDV at 24p? When I capture it seems to capture at 29.97 for some reason. If not, can I just tell Premiere to interpret the footage at a framerate of 23.976 and be alright anyway?

You might look at DVFilm Maker 2.4 https://dvfilm.com/maker which can remove 3:2 pulldown from raw HDV clips and convert to 23.976 using an intermediate codec such as Raylight or Huffyvuv. See for example

Raylight also has a 1/4-res built-in proxy (called Raylight Red) which can make it easier to edit HD 24P and then switch to high-quality for rendering.

You shouldn’t have to force anything. Premiere Pro even has a preset for 1080p 24p capturing. Maybe if you’re changing settings back and forth, it’s automatically switching the framerate back to 29.97 if you switched another setting that requires it or something. That’s really the only reason I can think of that it would decide to import at 29.97 if you’re not setting it to.
