  • Offline Post-Synched audio mysterious shifted to TC Rate 30 in a DVCPRO HD 720p 25fps base project

    I’m having a strange issue.

    I have been cutting a P2 card DVCPRO HD 720p 25fps based feature that I initially injested back in August on location in Sicily. The Project file has been fallow for a few months —

    INSERT DIGRESSION

    There is a whole secondary story where I set things up to edit in Premiere CS3 on a PC to have better access to After Effects — that has gone out the window due to bugginess and lack of OMF export for post audio guys.

    BACK TO THE STORY.

    — and I’ve just noticed today that reconnecting the audio wav files has lead to reports of unexpected file lengths etc. And indeed these files a small bit out of sync now. Well, I’ve just noticed that they are listed as TC Rate 30 based files, and I can’t seem to get FCP 6.0.3 to reconnect them as TC Rate 25 files. Importing them anew works just fine for TC Rate 25…but I kinda wanted to keep a few of these audio files actually connected to the timeline!

    Is there a trick for this I don’t know? Or is it time to bring in the 200 wav files again and this time use AUX TC and merging tricks to create a more lasting association between audio and video tracks.

    Thanks!

    ps Audio wavs don’t have TC information attached, not Broadcast wave or similar, and with TC track not activated.

    Just noticed that certain folders import as 30fps no matter what. strange. most can be re-imported as 25fps without issue. Easy Setup is for base 25fps.
    Any brilliant solutions will be…so helpful!
