    having problems with broken 2:3 cadence

    seems like cinema tools doesnt like continuous timecode if it has multiple start stops which jack up the pulldown cadence.

    i have a bunch of subclips where the start stops take place. media manager isnt wanting to give me small clips for each clip i have in the media manager sequence. should i trim a frame or two in on each clip? i have a pretty good feel for the clickable options in media manager. for some reason it still tries to lump them all together.

    I’m unclear. What is it that you want to do?

    I got it to work.

    basically despite having unbroked timecode. i had captured a clip that had multiple takes, as in DV start stops shot with a dvx100. the 2:3 pulldown removal in cinema tools wouldnt work on these longer clips, and wanting to keep valid timecode, i needed a way to subclip (mark >dv start stop detect) and then batch out using media manager as their own unique pieces of media.

    media manager wanted to lump some of the clips togather because the last frame of clip a, for example, would be right before the first frame of clip b, and no matter how i set it up, it wanted to not make seperate clips.

    the way i made it work, was manually trim the i/o points on each subclip, and then drag to a sequence and media manage from there. i ended up with all my subclips copied as independent subclips which cinema tools was able to batch remove pulldown.
