Mpeg Streamclip: Setting frame rates
Hi all, I’m a sound guy trying to figure out a video question:
Is it possible to convert picture to some non-standard frame rate by entering a value in the window? Like 24.36 fps, or 23.954 fps?
Doesn’t seem likely to me but an editor recently told me it’s possible…
Therefore there would be a difference in something converted to 23.97 from 23.98??
Can this be true?

I’m trying to find out if someone could unknowingly create a problem by outputting to 23.98, or 23.99 instead of 23.976, or if the frame rates are infinitely variable. Or does the system default to the standard frame rate nearest that which is entered?
I’m trying to prevent problems that might occur from less experienced picture editors…
Is it possible to manipulate frame rates in this way?

IT is…but you have to do it on purpose. Go out of your way. And you’d see the error right away in FCP.
If they are less experienced, don’t give them the responsibility.

Thanks, Shane… I just needed to know if it was possible… just one more pitfall… I am amazed…
It’s not my call what they do or don’t do. There’s a lot of multi-format editing going on… long story… but final output is usually 25, so less chance…
