Comp length 1 sec 10 frames sequence of Photoshop layers
I have problems making a 1sec long comp out of PS file with 10 layers. However I import the PS file AE CS5 makes every layer x frames length(I can set this number fine) BUT since my AE is based on25fps it makes these frames x/25 length. That however will not allow me greate a comp 1sec duration that fits these 10 layers right.
I can’t believe there isn’t a way to choose anything but ”Base 25” will not change when Frame Rate get changed in Comp Settings..
I found that CS3 works as it should. Changing Frame Rate in Comp Settings will change the ”Base” accordingly and does not have the problems I describe above. CS5 however…… -

This is exactly what I am talking about.
My question remains – how to get rid of that sticky Base 25 in CS5? -
Thank you taking time on this!
So what you are saying is that I can not make 1sec long clip containing lets say 7(or 14 or 28) frames only. It would be either 30 or 25 devided so that the number is even. Like 30fps=3;10;15 etc and 25fcp=5.
I can work around by time stretching layers and croping.
While CS3 allow to change time Base when you change the Frame Rate.

Thanks!
For my purpose for visuals for music it does not matter what the frame rate is but the duration is very important to match the beat.
So for now I work in CS3 if I can and render and import to CS5 if I need the features of CS5. -
I found out that one needs to enable Auto Timecode Base in Project Preferences(project window>click on tab between Create New Comp and Trash can at the bottom bar). And problem solved.
