Thanks, Dan. I created a new sequence in the timeline and inserted a clip to let FCP set the sequence settings correctly and then copied the other clips into the new timeline. It may be that I created the original problem by inserting a 10 second slug as the first item in the timeline on the original sequence. It’s the only reason I can think of why FCP did not set up the setting correctly when I inserted the first clip. I have not tried making a freeze frame in the new sequence, but everything else is working well.
Thanks for your help.
