I didn’t realise that. Be good to know how it loses quality by upscaling if the explanation isn’t too technical for a monday evening?!
-
it wont lose any quality as the 720p is less good quality than 1080 anyway, so you’re “up-res-ing” it higher than it actually is. it would be different if you were to down-res 1080p footage to a 720p sequence.
-
ah, so it’s 720p? right click and ‘scale to frame size’
-
‘keep existing settings’

It wont be the same result, it will be half the speed! And as Shane said above, if you want it at normal speed just drop the 50fps footage into a 25fps timeline and will be good. If you want to use the same bit of footage at both normal speed and half speed then you can make a copy of the clip and ‘interpret’ frame rate on one and not on the other.

Ah! I wasn’t aware of this, I have moved systems a couple of times so the upgrade might have just been coincidental. I will try this, thanks.

The easy way is to right click on your clips and go to modify > interpret footage > assume this frame rate and type in 25 (if you’re working in 25). this will make all your 50fps stuff play back at half speed (which is presumably what you want).
The difficult way is by transcoding all of your footage to 25 outside of premiere but this will result in loss of quality and artefacts on the footage.

Ah brilliant, that’s really helpful. Thanks.

Thanks for your responses. It ultimately turned out to be settings on the deck. Despite it displaying HD 50 on the front, there were some internal settings that weren’t correct (don’t have exact details, sorry!) which was preventing it from outputting properly.

I’d had it as 1920×1080. Only other option is 1440×1080 which doesn’t make any difference.
Thanks
