  HD 1280×720 59.94 and 29.97 fps

  Posted by James Orlowski on November 20, 2008 at 2:21 pm

  So, I’m rendering a clip out of AE CS3 at 1280×720 resolution using Photo JPEG Quicktime compression. The comp is set at 59.94fps. The output module is set to use that frame rate, too.

  But when I import the clip into my AJA Xena HS 1280×720 59.94fps job, it comes in at 29.97fps. And on the timeline, it requires rendering, and plays back in slo-mo.

  BUT, if I force the interpolation of the clip in the Premiere bin to 59.94fps (using the “assume this frame rate” setting), the clip plays fine with no need to render a preview.

  What gives? If I play that clip in the Quicktime player and show the inspector, the clip IS 59.94fps.

  I tried several times with different settings in AE, but whatever I do, the clip always imports into Premiere at 29.97.

  Of course, I could just assume the proper frame rate in the Premiere project, but for more than a few clips, that could get tedious.

  Thoughts?
