Bug? FCP x cannot mix 24/25 fps correctly

Earlier this week, we had a 4 camera shooting, all in full HD but some in 24 fps and some in 25 fps.
According to Apples marketing copy, FCP X handles different fps with no problems at all.
We experienced this:
When putting 24 fps and 25 fps on the same timeline, they run out of sync.
If we clap in start of recording and in end of recording and sync from the first clap, the later claps will be out of sync.
I called Apple and ended up talking to a guy called Andrew in Apple UK that told me, that it might be due to us not transcoding at IMPORT but later on, but this made no difference to us.
After this, I emailed Andrew / Apple directly several times, giving them a lot of tests and details and also showed, that mixing different fps doesn't give any problems in neither my Premiere Pro nor in my FCP 7.
After several emails to Apple this week, I haven't heard a single word back from them

Hi,
I have the same problem as you Kenneth. I found a little work-around. I created new project in 25fps, imported to timeline all my 25fps clips, and then I placed few clips which are 24fps on timeline. Then I slowed down 24's to 96% manualy by retime, not by conform option. I hope it'll help you. Btw. I'm a fan of FCP, but X has got too many bugs... C'mon Apple...
Edit: It still doesn't work in longer clips. I have like 15sec clip and I need to put it to 91% of original speed to keep movement of mouth and voice together :O

    qt can be "odd" at times
    i have a pre built qt program that is a " must have ( isis3 from the USGS)" and there have been odd mix/matching issues
    it is almost better to just build the qt programs from source
    some times in the "bundled" programs it is possible to rename the qt libs from ??.so  to ??.so.off ( in the bundled folder) .
    I do that with isis3 when needed

    Hello,
    We recently changed to TFS as our bug tracking system and trying to understand how to change the existing states of Bug\Add new states. We installed TFS 2013 Update 4 and followed below process to change state values. For example, I would like to change
    Bug State value of "Done" to "Closed",
    1. witadmin exportwitd /collection:"http://MyServer:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection" /p:MyProject /n:Bug /f:C:\TFS\bug.xml       
    2. Replace all values of "Done" to Closed
    3. witadmin importwitd /collection:"http://MyServer:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection" /p:MyProject /f:C:\TFS\bug.xml
    Then we see below error in Work -> Backlog

  • HT1692 Have recently installed itunes and outlook on a new computer.  Have multiple email accounts set up in Outlook tho only use contacts and calendar in relation to one of these. Cannot sync itunes with the correct contacts and calendars, Help!

    My new computer is 64-bit running Windows 7 pro, SP1 and Microsoft Office 2010 Pro Plus 32-bit
    My phone is a 4S runing iOS 6.1.3
    Very frustrated now that I have recently installed itunes and outlook on this new computer.  Everything worked perfectly ok on my laptop which was also 64-bit Windows 7 and running 32-bit Microsoft Office 2010 Pro.  I have multiple email accounts set up in Outlook tho only use contacts and calendar in relation to one of these. Cannot sync itunes with the correct contacts and calendars, when I sync the calendar and contacts are empty.  Not sure if there is any way to point itunes to particular address books and calendars.
    I have installed and uninstalled itunes 3 times and thank goodness have a backup
    Can anyone help please?
    thanks in anticipation

    I had my home computer set up to sync to work's Exchange server. It worked well, but I didn't like seeing work email messages and other programs trying to sync with my default Outlook folder, which was then the Exchange (& work related) .ost file. I know there are various ways to manage those problems using filters, view, subfolders, etc., but it was a hassle for me. I think it could work well for many other folks.
    For now, I have published my work calendar and subscribed to that calendar on my home computer. So I have view only access to my calendar on my home computer (and I can add/edit calendar items on my iPad (or Outlook Web Access) when away from work). This is not quite what I wanted, but it may work.
    It almost makes me long for the days when I used my Windows Mobile Treo to sync back and forth between exchange at work and outlook at home (but had many sync conflicts as a result).

  • HT1296 I have a problem synching calendar data between my iPhone 3GS iOS 5.1 & Outlook 2007 on MS7.  The basic calendar is OK but the birthdays (little box icon) are a day early & cannot be changed to the correct date. How can I fix this?

    I have a problem synching calendar data between my iPhone 3GS iOS 5.1 & Outlook 2007 on MS7.  The basic calendar data transfer is OK but the birthdays (little box icon) are a day early & cannot be changed to the correct date. The birthday entries in my Outlook contacts have correct dates.How can I fix this?

    The following peocess corrects the calendar entry:
    edit the contact & change the birthday, save the change; edit the contact & change the birthday to the correct value, save the change again. The calendar entry then displays on the correct date.  Alternatively as a temp solution I can just de-select the "birthdays" calendar which stops the icon being displayed.
    Thanks for your advice, I think that it's n going to be a slow process to fix all the entries for not much return.

  • Cutting mixed frame rate (fps)?? -formerly: compatibilty of HDX900 & FCP? ?

    Hi there,
    I didn't hear much response from this group about this previous topic (thanks loyed or is it, scott?)... but I have a related question.
    Has anyone cut a piece with mixed frame (vid) rate. For example, we are cutting some video shot at both 23.98 and 29.97. The sequence settings for 'editing time base' allows only one option. So I guess I could set 2 sequences and put one into the other. I don't want to nest though. Anyone deal with this?
    I'm researching which is better for our project, either FCP or Avid. I want to be able to cut HD (shot with the HDX) in real time with mixed frame rate. Right now, I know Avid can handle the mixed frame rate. I have heard that with Avid Media Composer (software only), you may have to render often if your working off-line.
    On the other hand, Apple says they don't officially support this camera's format. BUT I found someone who is using the one I use for the HVX, DVCPRO HD 720p and it is working for them (again thanks Scott).
    I can't test either out yet. I don't have the footage, but will be working on a time crunch.
    Any of your thought will be appreciated.
    Best to you guys,
    Sandhya

    I know you said you don't want to nest sequences, which is a good thing, because (as of now) you can't nest sequences with different frame rates.
    Capture the 23.98 footage without removing the pulldown, and you'll have the 23.98 look in a 29.97 file.

  • Sony EX XDCAM from FCP MAC cannot be recognized by PC

    Not sure if this is a quick fix, but my CGI guy - who works by remote - cannot get his PC to recognize my XDCAM EX 108024p clips from my MAC - which I have exported as MXFs using the SONY XDCAM export option in Export>using qt conversion. I sent him the link to the driver, and he said it installed fine - but still his computer was not recognizing the MXF file. Does he need a program to convert?
    Basically, I am looking for a lossless way to give him my Sony EX1 files that he can work with on his PC (in studio max) and then export to a lossless format that I don't have to render in FCP.
    Any tips or suggestions most welcome. This is my first time editing a program with EX 1 files in FCP.

    I'm using the Sony XDCAM transfer 2.5.1 to bring in the clips from card into FCP. The clip browser I downloaded yesterday and I tried to get it to recognize an MXF file that I had exported from FCP using the sony xdcam plug-in (but it did not). I guess I can only use the MP4s to convert to MXF? Is there a difference going from FCP compared to Clip Browser? I want to be able to export cut sequences so that the CGI guy can composite...

  • Possible Bug: Copying Frames sometimes mixes up artwork

    I'm sure Adobe is sick of hearing about bugs, but.... one issue that I've noticed with Flash CS4 that was never an issue in CS3 is that when selecting the frames of a complex animation, copying them, and pasting them into another Flash file, often results in some of the artwork getting mixed up.  I can't paste screenshots or example FLA's due to legal issues, but I figured that I'd make a note of the issue.
    Regards,
    Tim

    My apologies for not getting back sooner.
    My client won't allow me to attach any work I've created here, but I've received permission to send screenshots of the library.  I've attached JPEG images to help illustrate what is happening.
    The actual bug is new to Flash.  Flash CS3 never had issues with this.
    Basically I place all assets in a folder called assets.  (except for those that are on the stage at any given time).  Those assets may have other assets buried in subfolders and sub-subfolders.  Aside from the assets folder, these assets and subfolders are created automatically by Flash when importing Illustrator artwork.
    However, when copying frames over, it doesn't maintain the subfolder hierarchy and assets that happen to have the same name begin to replace each other.
    My workaround involves selecting the assets in the library that I need.  Hitting ctrl-c.  And then going to the destination FLA and pasting them into the library.  Then I select the frames I need to copy and paste them into the destination fla file.
    Oddly enough. when copying the library over, I have no problem with maintaining the folder hierarchy.  It's just when copying frames of animation, that I have issues with this bug.

  • FCP X cannot open project that I created in the trial version

    I bought FCP X. Now I am trying to open projects that I worked on in the trial version but they will not open.
    I get the following message:

  • Can I re-mix audio by importing iMovie Project/Events to FCP X, and mixing in a pro studio?

    This needs a little backstory: I edited a promo of Select Scenes from a doc that I shot on a Canon SF105 HD, doing a quick job on iMovie for my website. I did the best I could as both an amateur mixer and using consumer software. The audio "mix" is horrific, of course, and being old school film, I need something a whole lot better. It was suggested by a pro edit studio (& friend) that I might IMPORT the iMovie Project & Events library to FCP X, and using these "mix elements", they could use their system (probably AVID or a hybrid) to do a proper mix. They would then lay back the track to the picture. They don't use FCP X, but again, with separate sound tracks, they might be able to do  something of it. Am I dreaming?

    If the project is in a recent version of iMovie you might be able to. Clean up the iMovie project of all extraneous transitions, effects, and titles, and any DRM audio. Download the trial version and give it a shot.
