  • Working with fcp 24@25 makes video stutter.. (movie editors ??)

    Posted by Anders Haavie on September 10, 2006 at 3:44 pm

    Editing a film shot at 24 frames and put on dv tapes. When i use FCP and output with my decklink HD card I can’t make the smoothing 24@25 pulldown work. The picture stutters really bad. However, using firewire and my dsr-11 deck as a converter everything looks nice. This is my first movie project.. Doesn’t decklink support this option ??

    (PAL material, Quad G5, Decklink HD Extreme)

    Interesting. I wondered if the 24@25 pulldown method would only work with firewire out. I wonder if BMD need to implement it in their drivers?

    Looks like it simply doesn’t work with decklink cards.. VERY annoying. Lets hope the blackmagic guys manage to make it work… please please please

    It shutters also with the AJA Io … they don’t understand again upper and lower mixes in PAL …

    24@25 in DV should be lower
    24@25 in uncompressed should be upper

    So,is the answer that the only way to get a true 24fps edit to tape when working at SD 625 with 24fps film is to output to tape via firewire using System Settings/Playback Control/Pulldown Patteern/24@25 ?

    If you try to output via Decklink or AJA you get stuttering when playing a true speed 24fps ETT to 25fps tape.

    I guess the answer is to telecine to HD and capture DVCProHD or MotionJPEG @24fps and stay at 24fps all the way or get the rushes telecined to 30NDF digibeta and follow an NTSC SD workflow
