I’ve been trying the Twixtor plug-in, watched the tutorials and I realize now that I might haven’t correctly described my problem.
The problematic video, which is recorded with Nikon’s P500 in HiSpeed mode, actualy records 15fps but ‘packaged’ it in a 29.970 fps signal. For that high speed effect. So I assume it doubles the frames. So when I re-interpret the footage as 15fps the movie get’s twice as long and plays at normal speed, which is sort of what I want. But it still consist of duplicate frames. Which is not really what I want, I should get rid of the duplicates and have Twixtor generate the frames needed to get a 29.970 signal. I’m a bit confused here.

Does this make any sense at all ?

So it’s not strictly frame rate conversion, because the frames are there, just doubled. I start with 29.970fps and I want 29.970fps … so how do I go about this ? And How does Twixtor handle these situations, with duplicated frames, does it recognize duplicates ? Should I let it know of this strange file construction ? Because I tried all sorts of solutions, with and without Twixtor, but I don’t see any difference.

thanx in advance

Now see, this is why I used to love forums ! Always somebody there that can help, fast and detailed. Refreshing, don’t see that often on a forum anymore. It’s usually more like “yes. .. no. .. yeah I have that problem to, can you PM me … Google is your friend” which it isn’t really …. but I’m going way of topic, another forum decease sorry 😉

Thank you sir ! I’ll take in your advice and give it a try with a demo of your product !

If it works I’ll purchase it, because my friend says he wants more children and he will probably muck those up to, the video’s I mean 😉
No seriously, as beginning filmmaking enthusiast I’m interested in slow motion effects amongst others.

anyway, thanx again !

best regards
