Conform from 24P back to 60P -- Please Help!

I accidentally batch captured some HD 24FPS footage from a Varicam at 60FPS over firewire via the panasonic HD1200A deck using the DVCPRO HD CODEC. Final Cut normally removes the extra frames upon capture to make it 24fps. But for troubleshooting purposes (it kept aborting capture) I ended up capturing the footage without the frame removal pulldown feature enabled.
To fix this, I mistakenly tried the Cinema Tools conform feature to "conform" the footage to 24fps. This didn't remove the pulldown, but rather just slowed everything down, esentially stretching out time, making my audio tracks unusable. Unfortunately, there seems no way to conform the footage back to 60fps because the conform window only allows 24 and 30fps conversions. I need a 60fps conform technique. Is there a way to fix the footage?

Thanks for the help!
the reason I couldn't capture reliably using the 24P settings appears to be that my Firewire bus is not functioning properly--I'll get it into service but that's another issue.
Since recapturing isn't really an option because the deck was a one-time rental, I tried a slightly lossy technique, but the results were acceptable to me. Creating an image sequence was a good idea, but I wanted to preserve my audio track simulateously.
Here's what worked for me:
I started by conforming again in cinema tools to 30 fps. This gave me a simple even denominator of 60P. I then added each of these footage files to a 60P DVCPRO HD sequence. I then adjusted the speed of the clips in the timeline 200% and turned off frame blending. I then exported (recompressed) the footage to new flattened clips. I then took the conformed, messed up files offline and reconnected to the new clips, thereby preserving my loging notes, etc.
It was time consuming but worked. The audio is 48K again and the playback is 60P.
Frankly, I made a mistake that will become more common as the HD userbase expands. Most people don't understand that the Varicam 24P is actually recorded at 60P. I hope Apple updates Cinema Tools to conform back to 60P before more people make my mistake.
Thanks!

  • My iPhone recently broke so I was sent a brand new iPhone to replace it, however, since receiving this phone, I cannot access anything which was previously backed up onto iCloud from my last iPhone. Please help me!

    My iPhone recently broke so I was sent a brand new iPhone to replace it, however, since receiving this phone, I cannot access anything which was previously backed up onto iCloud from my last iPhone. Please help me!

    If you are trying to restore to an iCloud backup, this has to be done during the initial setup process.  If your phone is already set up, you will have to go back to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content & Settings, then go back through the setup screens again and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup (see image below).  Be sure your phone is connected to wifi and your charger as this will take some time to complete.
    Also, your replacement phone must be running the same iOS version or higher to restore to your backup.  If you are running an older version of iOS than the device that was backed up, your backup will not be visible when you choose to restore to your iCloud backup.  If this is the case, you'll have to update your replacement phone first.

  • As I was installing the Windows 7 on my Imac and stated how I wanted to divide the drive I put 160, but I want to add more space how can I can the drive space to from 160 to 250? please help thank you.

    As I was installing the Windows 7 on my Imacwith the bootcamp  and stated how I wanted to divide the drive I put 160,  but I want to add more space because of the adobe software it will not install two of them, so how can I add more on the drive space to from 160 to 250? please help thank you.

    I'm not sure this is what you're looking for, but it might help:

  • Used to have ios 7 betaon my i phone and downgraded to ios 6 so i can upgrade to the official ios 7 but i lost my pc back ups. Please help me

    Used to have ios 7 betaon my i phone and downgraded to ios 6 so i can upgrade to the official ios 7 but i lost my pc back ups. Please help me

    First off, Apple doesn't support downgrading and it can potentially brick your phone. With that being said, if you created a back up in iOS 7 Beta and are trying to restore it to iOS6, you wont be able to. You need to upgrade first then restore from your backup. Don't be suprised if it doesn't work. There is a very real possibilty you may have to start from scratch.

    Hi miketayber,
    We would love to help, but need to know a bit more to get to the root of the problem. Please tell us:
    What version of Acrobat are you using
    What operating system you're on
    Whether you've been able to scan previously
    What you're scanning to (do you have the latest drivers?)
    Is there an error message or number associated with the crash?
    We look forward to hearing back from you.

  • Can not select from my own MV. Please help.

    Hello Gurus,
    I have created a MV with following clauses
    CREATE or REPLACE MATERIALIZED VIEW "OWNER_NAME1"."MV_Name1"
    BUILD IMMEDIATE
    USING INDEX
    REFRESH COMPLETE
    AS
    SELECT column1, column2 .... from table1,table2
    where .....
    I have logged in to DB with the 'owner_name1' schema itself which is the owner of the MV.
    But, when I try to select from the above MV. It gives error "Ora-00942 table or view does not exist"
    I can see the same under 'user_objects' view as an object of owner_name1 schema.
    Could you please help me in understanding where I have gone wrong?
    DB - Oracle 9i on unix platform.
    Thanks in advance!
    Abhijit.

    Oh! I missed to mention the exact steps followed by me which created error for me,
    viz.
    1) I have 2 Database and their users as follows
    bq. i) DB1 in local server - 'localUser'
    bq. ii) DB2 in remote server - 'RemoteUser1' and 'RemoteUser2'
    2) 'RemoteUser2' user in DB2 has 'select' privilage on table 'RemoteTable1' of 'RemoteUser1' ( both are remote DB's users ! )
    i.e. select * from RemoteUser1.RemoteTable1; --works okay when logged into RemoteUser2. no synonyms are created hence using schema_name.table_name convention.
    3) Logged in to 'localUser' in DB1.
    4) Created a DB link 'local_to_remote2' in 'localUser' schema ( in DB1) to 'RemoteUser2' schema (in DB2)
    i.e.
    create database link local_to_remote2 connect to RemoteUser2 identified by password using 'connection_string';
    DBLink was created successfully.
    5) I could select from the tables of 'RemoteUser2' using DB Link. (by logging in to 'localUser')
    i.e. select * from RemoteUser1.RemoteTable1@local_to_remote2 ; --- gives me expected output. no issues!
    6) Now, I created below MV in 'localUser' ( no need to tell in 'DB1' )
    the exact syntax I used is as follows,
    CREATE or REPLACE MATERIALIZED VIEW "localUser"."MV_Name1"
    BUILD IMMEDIATE
    USING INDEX
    REFRESH COMPLETE
    AS
    SELECT column1, column2
    From RemoteUser1.RemoteTable1@local_to_remote2
    where condition1
    and condition2;
    The MV was created successfully, and I could see it as an 'Valid' object of 'localUser' schema.
    i.e. select * from user_objects where object_name ='MV_NAME1' and status ='VALID' --- tells that above create MV is an object of owner 'localUser'
    But, when I try to select from the said MV. it gives me error "Ora-00942 table or view does not exist"
    i.e. select * from MV_Name1; ---- neither this
    select * from localUser.MV_Name1; ---- nor this works :(
    Even when I try to drop the same MV it gives me same error. :(
    Could you please suggest me anything so that I will be able to select from MY OWN MV ?
    Please help Gurus.

    It will be backed up on your computer and can later be restored to an iOS device using iTunes, if desired.  Of course, if your hard drive crashes you'll lose it if it isn't backed up somewhere else.  If you want to included it in your computer backup, it will be located at one of the following locations:
    Mac OS X: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup
    Windows XP: %AppData%\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
    Windows Vista: %AppData%\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
    Windows 7: %AppData%\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup

    To delete files from your external HDD, attach it to your MBP and drag the unwanted files to trash and then empty trash.
    Then you select the files that you want to transfer by 'drag and drop' to the external HDD and trash the files on your MBP.

    Hi Charlotte,
    You don't say what your version of Windows you have. Assuming XP, go to Start | Run, type DXDIAG and click OK. Click the Sound tab and run the tests to eliminate a hardware problem first of all. If you don't hear anything, check your cables first of all. Also make sure "Mute" isn't checkmarked in your sound setup. You'll find that in Windows Control Panel.
    Which browser do you use? If you have Firefox 4, sign up to the HTML5 trial @ http://www.youtube.com/html5
    HTML5 is the latest video standard and doesn't require Flash player. Google is in the process of converting all its files to work with the new format. It may solve you problem. If you don't have Firefox 4, you can get it from here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/
    IE8 doesn't support HTML5.
    To clean out your temp files, go to Start | Run, type: CLEANMGR and click OK. Click OK again to start the utility. Tick all the boxes except "Compress old files" because the latter takes too long, and then click OK. You can run this utility any time you wish by the way.
    The above steps will hopefully fix your problem. If not, post here again please.
