    Timeline, 30 frames…?

    Posted by Vegard Sorby on February 20, 2006 at 3:35 am

    Hi, I’ve always wondered about this, but for some reason never asked..

    On the timeline, 1 sec is divided into 30 units, even though I’m in a 25fps PAL project, how come? Is there a way to change it to 25?

    Cheers!

    (After Effect 6.5)

    In your composition settings?

    Nope, even though the frame rate is set on 25fps, the timeline is divided into 30 units per second..

    I had the same problem. Its extremely weird, I agree, and it’s not that intuitively accesible.

    The solution in AE 6.5: File/Project Settings…/Timecode base – 25 fps.

    Thanks a lot!
    Such a small thing, but it will make my life a lot easier 😀
