Thanks for the response! We shot on 16mm and transferred to HDcam for masters. We may eventually go back to film if we have the money, but for now, we plan to finish on a tape to tape cut on HDcam (23.98) from our FCP EDL. Our DVcam dailies have timecode and the 23.98 timecode burn in from the HDcam master, but do not have keycode burn in. Is there any easy solution for batch changing all of the hundreds of clips quickly, or would it be better just to edit in 29.97 and accept that it may be off a frame here and there? To make sure that the sound matches up, I would definitely like to edit in 23.98, but I’m not sure what I’d have to do to make that happen.
