Thanks John, I’ll give it a whirl, I just changed the rate in compressor last time. I did lower the actual compression on the on the clip and that took some distortion away, so hoping this kills it completely.
Little confused why they would shoot with different frame rates though, maybe different DP or something.

January 21, 2014 at 1:55 pm in reply to: To Editors thinking of switching to FCPX 10.1The project I had in X was red footage and I used the red code, which I loved. Was so simple, but the fact that the project shut down as it became more complicated is what annoyed me. When I say complicated I mean addition of audio tracks, this is what I’ve concluded to be the rough of the problems I experienced. The more audio tracks added, the more problems.
Oliver I have a question, they shot a scene in 24 fps (they is client) along with recorded audio in 24 fps. The whole film is 23.98, every other scene. I’ve never had this happen, I don’t like the way the audio sounds when changing the framerate to 23.98. Any suggestions or should I bite the bullet.
I’ve seen a couple people mix frame rates some in 24, some in 48 online. I’m not sure what would happen on a digital projector if I go this route.

If you think this program is used in the entertainment industry, (in my case strictly film) but limited to broadcast. You simply do not work in the industry and probably cut weddings (there’s nothing wrong with that it’s good money) Done here, cheers.

Scroll down and read the thread I started before you buy it. The program is busted.

January 21, 2014 at 6:18 am in reply to: To Editors thinking of switching to FCPX 10.1I’m not defensive. The main point to be taken away from this thread is that young editors should not waste time learning FCPX because it’s not used in the entertainment industry.

Little side note. London is so far beyond what the states have done with sound it’s ridiculous. They take the cake in sound.

I think your best bet is clean install of Mavericks, clean install of FCPX, not an update. Diskwarrior on all of the drives, in Diskwarrior be sure to use Repair and Rebuild on all the external drives, just one won’t work. Also Disk Utility on HD drive by booting in repair mode, which I’ll explain if you don’t know.
Or you could always call Apple… I just laughed a bit.
Another thought, why don’t you try moving the render location to a new drive and see what happens before you try the above steps, (which is my go to for any program problem really.)

The editing program you use to place a clip is your choice, I just clean it.
