You are right, Nick. That facility I spoke to (who said speed up by 4%) didn’t really know what they were talking about. They really meant – reconform to 24fps resulting with a longer programme with lower pitch. A pitch change on a 5.1 audio track to me doesn’t seem a good idea.
I have choice between Teranex or Alchemist. One facility (who had both machines) actually said the Teranex gave better results on this sort of conversion.
Has anyone here compared the two?
