I answered 24fps – this seems to work now and I have been syncing the imported audio to the AMA linked 5k footage.
From these I have created sync sub clips that I have adjusted the source settings to match the 1920 x 1080 display of my project and started to edit with these, but with playback settings set to draft quality my computer is struggling to play the timeline smoothly.
I understand that editing directly with the AMA linked files would not be feasible on my system but that changing the source display settings to match a 1920 x 1080 project would help in some way to playback and edit them on the timeline and that avid does a realtime transcode or interpretation of sorts when you do this?
I thought about transcoding the synced subclips to something smaller but the only option I now have for these clips is to create a dnxhr 444 file which is massive.
Going forward is there a way to transcode my synced clips to something more edit friendly or should I have done this before syncing?
Any ideas?
