Quicktime files - frame rate change

Postby Graeme » Fri May 04, 2007 03:50

Hi Guys,

Was just wondering if you might be able to suggest a simpler workflow than we are currently using with .mov files when changing the frame rate of the file.

Currently we:

Open .mov file (from 50i Avid) with FCP, use Cinema Tools and change the frame rate of the file. Save file.

Open new file with QT player Pro and reset the frame size back to it's original size, cinema tools changes this for some reason. Save the file again.

Open the file in VCube - all OK.

This works fine (no step frames needed etc) but is a little cumbersome. Having the Mac on the same network means all of this can be done without having to move any media. Is there a better way to achieve the same result?

Thanks - Graeme

Hi Grameme,

I'm not sure to understand your workflow.
What changes in the frame rate of files are you doing?
What is your setup about TC and sync?

Let me know

Laurent
