Does interpreting footage affect it negatively?

Hi Tim

I have one final question, caue I render out my master as 24fps doesnt it already in a way interpret all my fpotage from 23.976 to 24?

exporting will respect the duration of the clip and force whatever you have into the frame rate specified for the duration.

As Ivan said up a bit in the thread, there wouldn’t be many frame drops as the frame rate is obviously only slightly different.

However, it isn’t the same as interpreting everything on the front end where each frame is displayed at the new frame rate, adjusting the clip duration as necessary.
