I am laying it down right to DVCPRO HD for a DVCPRO HD timeline. Its got to match my HVX200 footage. Which is 720p 24p. Everyone is telling me I can do this within Cinema Tools but its impossible for me to do no matter what I do. Please hit the link below and see if you can get this footage to 23.98 within Cinema Tools without it looking slow:

how do I make sure when laying down footage from the da vinci onto the 1200 deck that I can excract the 59.94 footage from the tape to 23.98 footage inside FCP or Cinema Tools? I was not able to do this no matter what I did the last time I layed to tape via telecine. Cinema Tools or FCP could not compute the 59.94 > 23.98 because I heard that there was no flagged frames telling FCP where to extract from. Is this makign sense?

Yes .. I tried forcing FCP to capture 23.98 with the 720p24 setting … I have tried everything ….. I thought no matter what the deck records 59.94 but flags for whatever you set it to. We did lay the 16mm down at 24 fps. I transfered at the Syndicate. I ended up exporting my clips from quicktime pro at 23.98. It looks as if quicktime just ditched the extra frames that were in the 59.94 original clip …. the new clip looks great.

Thanks for the responce. Live and learn for the next telecine session I guess. How should I go about my next transfer? What setting on the deck do I need?

For now I exported all my 59.94 material from within quicktime to 23.98 material. It actually did a great job and just took out all duplicate frames no problem. I could not see any generation loss as well so …. turned out good for now. But I owuld love to know for the future what I should do.

Thanks again!!!

What if I dubbed my tape back onto a varicam … would my dubbed tape then have the flags needed by fcp to do “remove advanced pulldown”?

What if I dubbed my footage into a varicam on a different tape … then took that dub into FCP? Would it flag my footage the right way so FCP could reverse telecine?

Yes. I tried that in cinema tools …. The reverse telecine is greyed out as if not an optin with my footage. When I try and batch reverse telecine my folder it says “Video does not have a valid NTSC video rate”. My footage is 59.94. Its valid. Dont know what to do.
