    Program Timing in 720p59.94

    Posted by Paul Koenig on February 28, 2008 at 9:51 pm

    I’m migrating to HD 720p59.94 from SD. Since TC at 59.94 is non-drop frame how is program timing affected? For example, with SD 29.97 non-drop frame TC a 60 minute program is actually 60 minutes 3.6 seconds in real time. With drop frame TC it is exactly 60 minutes.

    My question is what is the actual running time (real time)of an hour program edited at 720p59.94?

    Thanks for the idea, Dave. It may not be “elegant” but it should show me exactly what the heck is going on. I’m going to post this on the FCP Forum to see if anymore thoughts pop up. Thanks again.
