Thank you for your response Michael.

I think what we’re trying to figure out is what the quickest smoothest method is for conforming when dealing with mixed frame rates etc.

We are aware of changing the frame rate in source settings, but I’m under the impression that it only works smoothly if you’re doing say 50FPS to 25FPS. I’ll be honest I haven’t done a huge amount of experimenting but I was told that if converting say 23.98 or 29.97 to 25 it dropped frames or lost timecode.

Would Symphony benefit us at all? We rarely use tapes but as I said we are an offline edit house but occasionally we do do the online for lower budget jobs such as promos and we want to figure out the best workflow. We also have a baselight plugin if we ever want to grade in Avid. Do you know if Symphony is better for grading than this plugin?

Sorry for all the questions!

Thank you,

Meg
