    Posted by Erik Lutsch on November 29, 2011 at 10:45 pm

    I’m attempting to multigroup 2 cameras in a 23.98 project and I’m receiving the error “incompatible edit rates.” Has anyone encountered this issue before and have a solution?

    Did both cameras shoot 23.98? Both have the same dimensions?

    Yes, both cameras are shot 23.98 at 1080p and this is a 23.98p 1080p project.

    What codec/resolution?

    Any BWFs or other audio files involved?

    The codec is DNX35 1080p. There is 4 channels of audio for each cam and backup audio. Multi group does work when I only group clips that overlap each other in a sequence.

    If you splice both cams into to the timeline, ungrouped, does either one of them show the green dot?

    did your project “format” get changed to 720?

    No, it is a brand new project and has been a 23.98 project from the start.

    After I receive the error, I get 40-60 multigroup clips depending on the amount of footage in the sequence. Each multigroup is a section of the sequence. It would be nice to get one multigroup sequence, but it seems like that isn’t possible.

    how did you resolve this issue?

    Yes, I exported an ALE and reimported it. The metadata might have been corrupted. Reimporting an ALE file fixed it.
