Thanks – I actually run FCE so I dont have that, but I appreciate the answer. I will look into a standalone way to achieve the slow motion, but for now I have a new question.
This might get a little confusing for a second to try and bear with me. Because I am going through hours of footage, I selected time codes while viewing in quicktime (as my editor playback is very jumpy/laggy) and placed those selected parts down on the timeline. (to rephrase, I set my ins/outs and brought all the rough cut clips into the timeline) I then had to render these files, I assumed because they were 120fps while the timeline was running 30fps. I next took these rendered versions of the files and put them back up into my browser. Now, when I look at these clips, they are identified as 30fps as well. However, when I drag them back down to the timeline, they need to render yet again. I know I have only mentioned fps but I checked, and these re-placed clips in the browser have identical settings to the timeline. So why is it still making me render? Is it simply reverting these clips back to their basic setting, and only preserving my ins and outs?
Please let me know if this is hard to follow.
Thanks
