ProRes sources render with repeated frames. Anybody else get this?
I’ve got a 1080 23.98 timeline. I’ve received 1080 23.98 clips rendered in After Effects using ProRes codec.
When unrendered (step or play real-time), everything is correct. But when I render (and view step or real-time), the AE prores clips show random repeated frames throughout, just about every other frame but not quite. I’ve tried every permutation of sequence setting codecs (prores vs. uncompressed) and render quality settings. No difference — I get repeated frames.
Anybody else? Any guesses?
OS X 10.4.10, FCP 6.0.2, Dual 2 PowerPC
thanks

Nope, just checked, thank you, the Quicktime clips ARE 23.98. When you step through them in the viewer, or otherwise on the UNRENDERED timeline, or even in Quicktime, there are no repeat frames. The repeat frames only appear when these clips are RENDERED on the timeline.

There was a similar problem on a post a while back. Try conforming the clips to 23.98 to Cinema Tools. It worked last time.

Thank you David! Do you happen to have the link of that previous post? (I’m not finding it.) Thank you.

No problem:

It was for clips coming out of Combustion at a different resolution, but I’d be willing to bet your problem has a similar cause and solution.

David, thanks. That fixed it.
Interesting notes: One clip, though clip settings saw it as 23.98, CT (Cinema Tools) saw it as 24. However, on another problem clip, CT saw it as 23.98 already, but I conformed it to itself anyway, 23.98, and that fixed it. Weird. Thanks for the answer.

Your guess would be right. Thanks hugely.
