So now I’m really baffled. I tried another sequence from a different project, which was initially also non-drop and changed the sequence to drop frame and the edl manager worked as expected, it produced a drop frame edl. So of course I tried my other sequence again, thinking that I got edl manager to “snap back in”, but nothing doing, still giving me the non-drop frame.
AuxTC sounds interesting, I’ll need to look into that. Don’t think that would help with this though, if changing the entire sequence doesn’t help.
