  • upconvert ntsc dftc to 23.98psf frame accurately?

    Posted by Kurt Outwater on April 28, 2012 at 12:27 am

    I’m trying to accomplish this with a panasonic ufc-1800. Is it possible to do this? With NDFTC there seems to be no issue but there is a TC offset when using dftc from the master tape. I’m taking the pulldown out of the ntsc master as well.

    Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

    If you start the conversion on an even second the two should match. Otherwise it will be offset but should not drift.

    it’s a two step process with the ufc…. convert with an edit dub to ndftc then do the conversion.

    Oh I see now. There is no such thing as ndtc 23.98 so it will be impossible for it to match your dftc 60i master.
