Hi John, thanks. We have had the media cache local and shared at different times. We deleted the cache recently, too. We had the cache local for the most part, but it started filling up our local drives to the point where we needed to keep it on the shared RAID. I don’t recall there being much of a performance difference. (we had the same issues when the cache was local, and both systems are pulling off separate, remote cache folders)

It’s a separate, calibrated computer monitor. It’s what i have to work with.
I guess the curiosity is the interpretation between programs of the exact same footage. The grading window in color shows footage that is timed correctly, but when sent back to fcp, is off. Is there a gamma setting in Color rendering that i don’t know about? -
loud and clear on the 23.98 shorthand.
re: the camera, I’m looking for a low cost/ high ease of use camera to shoot in HD on a project when using a RED is highly impractical. My frustrations with its specs are the same as yours, but I can get the mark II for free, and there don’t seem to be any cameras like that that shoot native 23.976. …are there?thanks for the help!

Yes, I’m looking at it on a computer monitor, so you might be right. I’m working from home, so my only option is to burn each m2v to disc and look at it on a television. Sometimes they come out right, sometimes they look just as interlacey. Any real reason for this?

thanks, Ty. We’re trying it in logic at the moment. If that’s a bust, i’ll be sure to send you the file and info. thank you for the offer.

thanks. the conversion is not 36 to 30, but 36 to 24 (technically 23.976), so it’s at a 2/3 rate.

We shot at 36fps on an HVX camera. We used playback with a speed adjust of 66.67, but either a decimal got rounded or some mental mistake happened, and we would up roughly 1.8 to 2% off, with the video being shorter than the audio.
efforts to extend the video with FCP and AE proved either clunky (FCP) or time consuming and glitchy (AE). i did a slight pitch adjust, but the label found the resultant audio to be noticeably worse than the original track.
if anyone’s curious, here’s the take with a 102% speed/pitch adjust:

that’s the problem. it’s a one-take video. frown.

pixelmotion really didn’t respond well to any short bursts of light, which my video has some of, so I’m going to try to use change duration to shrink the duration of the song to 2%.
The problem is, in Audacity, Peak, even Soundtrack Pro, changing the duration makes the song sound terrible, just warbly and awful.
Is there a program / technique where I can make an audio track (aif) 98% of its regular length, preserve pitch, and have the song sounding as good as the original?
Help!

yes, 23.976. The whole video is one shot, so i’ll give pixelmotion a try. thanks.
