Converting 24fps to 25fps, HELP!!!!

Hey! I'd really appricated it if anyone out there could gimme some advice. I'm trying to convert a quicktime rendered out originally from Scratch (grading software) it was rendered out at 24fps and i need to convert it in FCP to a 25fps quicktime, i have rendered it out before but it keeps adding frames to compensate for the time difference, i need it to not do this. I've tried using quicktime convertor and setting it at 25fps there, but everytime i import it back to FCP it tells me that the clip i just rendered is at 24! I've also tried using the export quicktime movie option but no matter what i've tried there it just adds the extra frames. The clip is DVCPRO-PAL.
Please can anyone help me.
Thanks,
Esther.

OK figured it out, converting the clip using cinema tools will give you correct 25 frame rate without the duplicate frames! hurray!!!!

Convert 24fps to 25fps

Ok,
I know this is discussed in other posts discuss issues which seem to be close to this, but nothing which seems to quite answer my question. My camera shoots in DVCProHD 720p24, 720p30, 720p60. But I need to export my final project to PAL. I seem to get a lot of jerky motion through motion scenes. Even keyframed photos seem to jerk. I've exported a lot of tests through Compressor with the pre-set for high quality DVD, only changing the NTSC setting to PAL, and seem to get the same jerk regardless of whether I shot in 60fps or 24fps. Even if I put those shots into a standard PAL timeline.
Does anyone have a suggestion for best results when converting either the media for my timeline, or converting my timeline after completion?
Thanks,
Lawrence

Hey G,
A little more testing and I may have something here. I tried exporting the clip from the original 24fps timeline one more time, but this time, I used "Apple ProRes 422 for Progressive Material" from the Advanced Format Conversion>Apple Codecs. I then changed some of the settings as follows:
From the "Encoder" tab, I clicked "Settings" next to "Video" and changed the frame rate to 25fps
From the "Frame Controls" tab, I the frame controls on, and then:
Resize Filter--Better (Linear filter)
Output fields--Progressive
Deinterlace--Better (Motion adaptive)
Rate Conversion--Best (High quality motion comp)
Set Duration to: 24 @ 25
I should have done tests with one setting at a time, but I'm going to try to go back and do more testing tonight. But for now, I must admit that the result is very nice! I then imported my results into my 25fps timeline. This should mean I can just set my frame rate for new psd images to 25fps, and not worry about their motion. For pans or other motion shots that are jumpy, I'll try converting them using these settings.
You might be able to shed more light on what I've done as I don't really understand everything, but I was just sort of experimenting in the dark.

Converted WinHelp to HTML Help and context-sensitive topics aren't working.

Converted WinHelp to HTML Help and context-sensitive topics
aren't working. Anyone run across this?

I am a developer and we have big project that needs to be
converted from winhelp to HTML help. I received only the .CHM help
file from the help auther. I added the HTMLhelp.lib file and
HTMLhelp.h file in to my project. I tried to change atleast one
page of the dialog. I added on helpinfo function htmlhelp function
call and hard coded the .chm file path and for the right click I as
well did the same thing. But I am getting "No Help topic is
associated with this item" upon F1 key and crash after the right
click with wincore.cpp error.
The code is as below.
BOOL CCnvCfgGenNRecPage::OnHelpInfo(HELPINFO* pHelpInfo)

How can I automatically change my edited timeline from 24fps into 25fps?

Hello everyone,
I have a timeline in 24fps with 24fps footage. I have to convert it (the timeline and the footage) into 25fps, so I can put a 25fps Timecode in it (it was a 24fps 16mm film material and it has to be rescan in 25fps...). Is there a way to do that? I mean beside of reedit everything in a 25fps timeline. The footage was quicktime prores 4444, I made merged clips of it and edited it then, so I have only merged clips on the timeline.
I would be very thankful for any suggestions!

Hi Richard, unfortunately I need to burn in Timecode from the source clips, so this won`t help me:/ but thanks for your answer! I think the only possibility for me is to create a new timeline in 25fps, modify the source footage from 24 into 25fps and reedit it. Is there any way to use command match frame (and reversed match frame) from merged clips in a timeline to source material from which I created the merged clips? so the source footage and not the used merged clip will be loaded into the source monitor? it would make a reedit much much faster...

24FPS to 25FPS TELECINE WORKFLOW

Hey there -
Just a quick check, If I were to have 24fps Film material telecined to 25fps DV CAM PAL tapes is the correct workflow the following -
1. Import a log file into FCP or Cinema tools and create a new database
2. Create a batch capture list
3. Batch capture the clips
4. Batch conform the 25fps material to 24fps in Cinema Tools
5. Synchronize captured clips with Cinema Tools database
6. Edit in FCP using the Cinema Tools 24fps from DV PAL easy set up
7. Finish Edit and export an EDL for film scan to DPX files
or would this be the correct workflow :
1. Import flx file into FCP
2. Batch capture
3. Conform 25 to 24 in FCP and synch with Cinema Tools
4. Check Lab data in Cinema Tools and correct any errors
5. Edit using the 24 @ 25 Easy Set Up
6. Export EDL or Cut/Pull lists from the Timeline in FCP
Thanks in advance J

Did you read the Cinema Tools manual?
There is a section discussing 24 to 25 TK transfer.
Sorry that I can't help further, I work in PAL but rarely with film. When we do we live with the 4% speed difference. I realize that there is a issue going back to a frame accurate 24fps film cut, it's just that you are asking for something very specific.
Everyone here is a user just like you, so you need the magic combination of people who work in PAL, and deal with 24-25 film transfers on a regular basis. Most folks here are working with NTSC.
Good luck. I hope you find an answer to your question.

How best to convert 24fps to 60fps?

I would like to know the process to interpolate frames in a video recorded at 24fps to make it 60fps.Could anyone help me?

You question begs a question from me. Do you understand frame rates? Why do you want to do that and what do expect to happen? Last question, what kind of 24fps footage do you have?
Let's talk about kinds of 24 fps footage. First, there's real 24 fps footage, then there's 23.976 fps footage which was really 29.976 (ntsc) video which was recorded interlaced (59.97 fields per second) but has had 3:2 pulldown added which you typically get from a little older video camera with a 24fps option, then there is film originally shot at 24 fps but transferred to video using 3:2 pulldown.
Let's talk about 60 fps as a playback format. First, if you video is ever going to hit television of cable then there is no such thing. Everything in NTSC land is 29.97 fps then interpreted as 23.976 and it's all interlaced. What that means is that if you send progressive footage to a broadcaster you get interlaced footage back but it looks progressive because you have pairs of identical fields. If you live in PAL land you get other options. If you are talking playback on the internet via YouTube or vimeo, the standard is still 29.97, 25, 23.976 or 60P if the receiving client has 60p equipement.
If you truly have 24 fps footage with each frame a unique slice in time then when you "convert" that footage to 60 fps there are only two options. The first option is to just play back the footage at 60 fps which means 10 seconds on the clock will playback in 4 seconds so the motion will be sped up. 240 frames divided by 60 = 4.
The second option is that you keep the playback time the same for your 10 second clip by playing back some of the frames more than once. You can either do that by adding a pull down scheme or using time remapping or a plug-in like Twixtor to take the pixels in 2 frames and calculate their new position in the frame based on their projected movement. For example, let's say frame 1 has a rotating pointer that is vertical and pointed straight up and in frame 2 the pointer is horizontal and pointed to the right. If you were converting to 48fps instead of 60 then you would need a new frame between 1 and 2 with the pointer pointed up and to the right at 45º. This is very difficult for software to do with 100% accuracy, especially if there is a lot going on in the scene.
The only other scenario that I can imagine is that you have some true 60 fps footage that you want to use in the same project as your 24 fps footage. If that is the case, then the option I would pursue would be to create my project at 30 fps and use the 60 fps footage in that project and also import the 24 fps footage into the same project. If you have 60 fps footage that is really 60i or 60p then the frame rate is 59.97fps anyway and you could treat the footage as 29.97 with no degradation in quality or frame blending, then you would either re-render your 24 fps footage as 29.97 fps interlaced with 3:2 pull down added or just use it in your comp with frame blending added or use Twixtor to convert the footage to 29.97...
So I guess we need to know exactly what kind of footage you have and what you are trying to do and what you are expecting to accomplish before we can give you a process that will solve the problem.

Convert 24fps to 60fps using twixtor?

Hi folks
I've got this 1080p 24fps (23,976) clip that I'd like to convert to 60fps. I tried using "frame blending" when exporting the clip to 60fps but that didn't look very well.
My idea was to use Twixtor to create those extra frames that doesn't exist.
Twixtor does a much better job creating those extra frames than premiere, the problem is I don't know how to get a slowmo clip play as 60fps?
23,976 / 60 = 0,3996, so in theory I should be able to slow down my clip to 39,96% and then play it as 60fps in realtime, right?
I'm using the latest version of Premiere CC on a new MacBook Pro. Would this be esier to do in AE?
Any ideas?
Regards
Patrik

I am totally confused by your use of the terms "slomo" and "realtime".
I'm kinda guessing you want to play a 23.976 fps (realtime/normal speed) clip at 59.94 fps realtime/normal speed, if that is incorrect, I apologize.
The correct term for doing this is "Frame rate up-conversion" (use this for your Google searches)
Twixtor can do this
http://help.revisionfx.com/tutorial/148/
And After Effects can do this
http://creativeclouduser.com/converting-frame-rates-with-after-effects /
Final quality can vary based on software and original footage.
Tnx, this was exacly what I was looking for Basically I did exacly as the tutorial, except I changed the sequence settings to 60fps instead of interpret the footage. What is the difference in changing sequence settings and interpret the footage?

24fps to 25fps project

Hi Im a bit confused.
I have some film clips that are examples of my work and were shot at 24fps. Ive made some qts from
After Effects rendered as 24fps H.264. I realize that IDVD wants the footage to be bought in at 25fps.
Ive tried rendering out of AE at 25fps with frame blending but the results are still not correct. I have a nice dvd project set up for 720x576 in which to put these qts and as this work will most probably be seen on computer monitors surely it doesnt need to be finished at 25fps. What would be the best route to take to get the best quality? The original material is 1920x1080

First off, you need RAM - probably 16GB if you're going to do a full on, real documentary. Please, research on your mobo and see what your RAM options are.
To test whether CS5 will play your JVC files, import one and then click and drag it to the new item button on the bottom of the project panel. you will see the mouse add a '+' button, let go and it will create a sequence based on the clips properties. If it plays, you're good. If it doesn't then you need to find out the specifics of the camera and/or file format that it uses. It's not HDV at that point...
24/25fps is kind of like 220v, 221 - whatever works... ;-) Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 will resolve frame rates, aspect ratios and codecs transparently on the timeline. So, if your timeline is ultimately for PAL, then choose a PAL timeline and throw down the 24fps material as needed, it shouldn't be a problem and will play and output correctly for your destination format.
Finally, I'd suggest you read up on GPU's at Adobe Premiere Pro's page and consider investing in an nvidia Quadro or GeForce card to accelerate your effects and encoding. This has been a bunch of the secret sauce that's made CS5 so successful.
Hope you find this helpful,
Dennis

Why doesn't my imovie project for ipod touch go to my computer's iTunes when i hit the option "share with iTunes"? I need iTunes to have the project so I can format it in a video converter. Can anyone help?

I downloaded Imovie to my Ipod touch (I don't have a Mac computer/laptop) so that I can edit a project for school video assignment. I have editted the video, but I can't figure out how to make it go to Itunes. I need it there so that I can put it into a video converter for projection to my class. The problem is, I don't know how to get Itunes to recognize that there is a project made. Imovie (at least the mobile version) has a "share with Itunes" feature, which I found. When I use this feature... nothing happens on the itunes end. Does anyone know why this is and have a solution?

This is what the iMovie Help says:
http://help.apple.com/imovie/iphone/1.3/index.html#kna4501e0f8
Is that the procedure you've been following?

Re.problems with translator after converting pdf file.please help:-)

Please can someone help me.
i've converted a pdf file to a word document but it was a scanned document so word had to translate it but its come out as a load of gibberish.
i have over a hundred pages of corrections to make because of it so i was wondering if any of you could either tell me what i could of done wrong r tell me how to do it right:-)
thanks a bunch!!!

You cannot use Reader to do what you want. Depending on the language of your original document, you might be able to convert the document from a scan to text with Acrobat Professional. You can also investigate programs that are dedicated to OCR.

A PC convert in need of help

Firstly I appologize if I am posting in the wrong forum. I am a recent (last week) convert to Mac. I am the proud owner of a new Macbook Pro running leopard 10.5.1. I had no problems setting the system up UNTIL I got to Expose' and Spaces. There is no Icon for either on the Dock. I set them up (I think) in system preferences but the do not seem to be working properly. There is a tiny icon in the menu bar for Spaces. In spaces I can toggle between windows but I can not display all windows at the same time. In Expose' I can clear all windows (F11) but when multiple windows are open the contrast in shading is not evident. Have I done something wrong??

Hi Dezzaj, welcme here in the Forum.
Maybe you should try this setup for Spaces and Expose:
Spaces - Activate = Mouse Button 3 ( on Mighty Mouse)
Expose - all Windows= F9 / or Mouse Button 4
Expose - Applications Window = F10
Expose - Desktop = F11
Dashboard = F12
Maybe that helps ...displaying all Spaces Windows....and having it organized...
aah ya, you can set thse things in system preferences " Expose & Spaces"

Convert 24fps to 30fps (non-interlaced)?

I need to convert a 24fps .mov to 30fps in AE. I was wondering if you could suggest the best way for me to do so.
I tried a '3:4 pulldown' at render time, but that results in interlacing. Andrew Kramer's FPS converter script didn't seem to work for me in CS5 either.
thank you for any recommendations provided.

Can't be done in a single pass unless you want to just change the frame rate which would change the total length of the video.
Adding 3:2 pulldown can only be achieved through interlacing. You could then, on a second render seperate the fields. The resulting footage would have a regular pattern of soft frames where two fields, each from a different frame, are blended together into a new single frame. The amount of the bluring depends on the motion withing the frame. The video would not look as goos and ad standard 3:2 interlaced video from a 24 fps source.
Interestingly enough this brings up an interesting debate on film look and fps. When we were producing commercials for large ad agencies on 35mm film I always ran the camera at 29.97 frames per second and never at 24 because the resulting commercials just looked better. Sure, the broadcast video was still interlaced, but both fields were identical so we were really creating 3Op footage. It also sill looked like film because, well, it was film.
The biggest question that your question brings up in my mind is why would you need to or want to do this? I can't figure out why 3:2 pulldown video would be unacceptable.

New mac pro slow converting raw files any help?

hallo everybody,
can someone help?
my new mac pro 3.7 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon E5 / 32 GB 1867 MHz DDR3 is converting raw files in camera raw really too slowly, about twice the time took with an iMac 2,7 GHz.
I tryed all graphic processor options on PS preferences.
I also ran mac check up utility and hardware seems ok.

The normal suspect would be that you haven't rendered out the previews, but the low cpu value would indicate that the problem actually lies elsewhere. Even so, it would do no harm to run the Render Standard-sized preview command (Library module View menu)
Next thought is the operating mode. Lightroom 2.x can run as either a 32-bit or 64-bit application. With the amount of ram you have installed (very low for a box with this sort of power) you might find 32-bit is the best choice. You can change the mode by clicking on the Lightroom application icon then use the Get Info command (Cmd+I) to open the info panel
Tip: you would be well advised to increase your installed ram. Lr likes plenty of ram, especially in 64-bit mode. A good starting point would be 6GB or even 8GB

Error when converting videos for ipod--help needed please! : )

Where are the videos from? are they from a creditable source or from an illegal downloading site such as limewire. most of those videos are not in the correct video format to begin with so apple itunes will not recognize them and convert them. The best way to convert video is to rip your own dvds or home movies and put them on your computer then ipod. There is at least one way on each operating system (windows and mac) to rip your own dvds and then transfer them to itunes and finally put them on your ipod. A mac is the easiest of the two ways. If you have a mac, then you download a program off of the web called handbrake. Simply "google" >handbrake rip dvds< and its homepage should pop up or try <a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://">http://handbrake.m0k.org). Handbrake allows you to copy and convert your dvds to ipod format. On a windows operating system the most effective way I have found to rip my dvds is quicktime pro($25-$35). You can buy it at quicktime's website. It basically does the same thing as handbrake. I, myself, have simply converted some videos, like sports shows and commercials, to ipod format using itunes and both the video and audio worked fine.
If you have any ?'s just reply back
I hope this helps!
