    Math to convert DVCproHD 720p 24p to SD digibeta broadcast master

    Posted by Jcginn on September 25, 2007 at 3:34 pm

    Hello,

    I hope someone can help me with what I’m sure is an obvious question. I have an HD timeline in 24p that will be downconverted to a drop frame SD broadcast digibeta. How do I calculate the conversion to 29.97 and then the drop frame output so my program is at the proper length?

    Thanks,

    John

    No problem Shane. An editor recently asked me the same question and I pointed him to your blog.

    Cheers,
