Thanks for all your guys help.

what version of avid will allow a 23.98 project
11.2.7? We only have the option of using OS9 systems.
And can’t sample rate convert because then we will lose the sound timecode information which we need to sync to the cameras.

no we are a 24p project. 23.98 isn’t avail with our software

PS… thanks Michael.. I’ll try to make that thing at fox – but the westside by 730 is tough when your working at “the Lot”….

Is this the only dissadvantage we have on our show in cutting at 24p vs 23.976? (We won’t be changing to a newer version of composer) Thats all I can think of. It only affects sound correct?

So i’ve read the article and it still leaves me with questions.. Its basically all about sound then.
Currently the show that I”m on is running composer version 11.2.5 (which does not have the 23.976 project option) and thus are in a 24p project. Our show was shot on the varicam downconverted to digibeta and ingested into our avid. Our production sound is being recorded to dvdram at 29.97 ndf 48k. We are finishing on film but will be conforming the 720P material for upres and filmout.
Sounds like our production then should be using a 23.976 project. Since we are on an older version and don’t have that option, is our only dissadvantage when using our production sound? As of now the editor is cutting with audio off the digibeta (which is digitised with audio matching video sync) and only when need be asks for sound rolls. When we import the sound roll we have to do a time compression filter (.999 conversion) to pull down the fostex dvd ram audio from 48k to 47.952 to be in sync with the video.
Am I correct to assume then if we were cutting in a 23.976 vs our current 24p project – the audio would remain at 48k (not be pulled down using video sync) and then in turn our production sound would be in sync with picture running at 23.98 at 48k? or am I completely confused?
sorry for my bad spelling in advance 🙁

Also this is strictly an option for an adrenaline correct?

Not sure what dvd recorder your talking about but I assume its a consumer dvd recorder in which it acts like a vcr and records. If so, use the analog inputs with the dvd recorder and connect it to your D to A converter (deck, camera etc) out’s. Render out your sequence into a quicktime (ie mix it down) and re import. Just play it in your timeline as you record on your dvdr. We do this all day long in my cutting room
