CS6 imports file at incorrect frame rate

Hi all,
Exported recordings from Screenflow and using Premiere Pro CS6 to edit them.
We have two screen captures from Screenflow made on the same day. We exported both with the same settings into .mov files.
part-1.mov imports correctly at 25 fps.
part-2.mov imports incorrectly at 2.5 fps. ???
We tried the following without remedy:
- restarting Premiere Pro
- re-exporting part-2 in Screenflow
- opening the exported file in QuickTime and export it again using QuickTime, as QuickTime sees the frame rate correctly
Still no luck. We're stuck.
part-2 does look choppier in Premiere than it does in Screenflow. It is visibly dropping frames.
To add more frustration, Premiere imports the file with the correct duration, about 1:03:31. So if we mess around with the frame rate in Clip > Modify > Interpret Footage..., it speeds up the clip and has the wrong duration.
Does anyone know what's happening? Is there a way to modify the frame rate of a clip without affecting its duration?
Thanks,
paula

Im having problems importing prores files at correct frame rate

im having problems importing prores files at correct frame rate. they have been converted to prores at 25fps but on importing they appear in fcp as 30fps. any help would be appreciated.

I don't know anything about Wondershare. But it seems something may have got messed up in the conversion. Or maybe there is an identifier on the converted clip that has FCP confused and it really is 25 fps.
To begin, your sequence settings don't match your clips. You want a Pro Res sequence. Let FCP set this automatically by dragging a Pro Res to an empty sequence and when gives you a message asking whether you want the sequence to match the clips, click yes. Then hit command 0 again and see whether the frame rate is set at 30 or 25.
If it really is 30, then it will need to be converted and re-imported. It can be done in Compressor or in Cinema Tools. If you have used Cinema Tools before, great. Of not, I'll defer to others because it's been a while and I don't want to mess you up.
Good luck.

Imported quick time movie frame rate

I have just used Quicktime to convert some old royalty free archive footage. When the conversion is done, the new movie is in the correct format for PAL at 25 frames per second. However, when I import into FCE4, the frame rate of the imported movie drops back to 10fps. Any ideas?

What are the specs of your clips before conversion? How are you going about converting it exactly? What are the specs of your clips according to Quicktime Movie Info after conversion?

Premiere Pro CS6 for Broadcast ProRes HQ Frame rate issues

I switched from Avid to work on a quick project with DSLR footage shot on the 5D Mark III at 29.97 psf which is not to be confused with 29.97i, a standard frame rate necessary for broadcast. So the commercial spot was cut together, I punched in the proper settings (the very same settings that work with Avid 6.0+ and Final Cut Pro 7), and hit export. When exporting either a Quicktime Animation or Pro Res file from Premiere Pro CS6, premiere creates a file with a faulty framerate, it comes out as 28.4 instead of 29.97. I thought I was going crazy, but no, there are tons of documented experiences with 23.94 being 20-something, and on an on. It seems as if Adobe did not do a good enough job with integrating the Pro Res codec into their software. The only way I could get around it was to export to something else (Blu-ray H.264 at 29.97), and then re-encode that file to Pro Res HQ with either compressor or adobe media encoder. The problem lies in exporting progressive footage as interlaced, it just completely screws up the frame rate. The worst bit is that, I need Pro Res HQ for the distribution house for the commercial spots, they require the ProRes HQ MOV at 29.97i and if anything is off, I get charged for it.
Does anyone else have problems with Adobe Premiere lacking on the professional end? Or similar experience with this problem?
Just do a search for pro res frame rate issue premiere and you will see a lot of other users with the same issue.
Thanks,

Can I import clips using a frame rate of 60 or higher?

I have a sony cx260v that allows me to record in a rate of 60 fps. However when I attempt to upload the footage taken in this frame rate to iMovie 11 9.0.4 it shows as a blocked clip and does not allow me to upload.
Any ideas?

Yes, you can re-import them, but it's not that straightforward, and you loose some quality in the process. Search for "MPEG Streamclip" or "DVD camcorder" in this forum, and you will find lots of answers.
Alternatively, you can make data DVDs with your DV clips. Simply pop in an empty DVD, and drap the DV clips you want to export into the burn folder. A normal DVD can hold about 20 minutes of DV clips, a dual layer DVD twice as much.

FCP importing LiveType movie at incorrect frame rate

Hi all...working at a client, using OS10.4.8, FCP 4.5, PowerPC dual 2.5...
My problem...I'm exporting a movie from LiveType...a simple moving background. I know nothing about LiveType, all I'm doing is selecting "Export Movie" and selecting a video only DV/DVCPRO NTSC 720x480 29.97 export, and exporting.
The movie appears to export fine. When I open it up in Quicktime player and check the properties, sure enough, it's a DV movie 720x480 running at 29.97.
When I import it into FCP, however, FCP insists that it is a DV NTSC movie - running at 25 fps.
Ya know, is there some sort of little chromium switch I forgot to throw before importing? Is this a toss prefs and re-import problem? Or should I just go into the hotel-motel mismanagement business?
G5 dual 2 (2 g)/G4-733 (1 g)/iBook 1ghz (.5 g) Mac OS X (10.3.9) older slower Macs

No. Like I said, I'm a LiveType ignoramus.
I'll be back there next Wednesday, and I will attempt this.

Exporting DPX sequence: frame rate incorrect in exported file

Hello all, I'm new here. I'd really appreciate some help with this issue. My sequence and source files I am working with are 2048x1240, (1.0), 23.976 fps . I am exporting a DPX file sequence with matching settings.
The problem is, when I import that new DPX file sequence back into my Premiere project, or an AE project with the same settings, the new DPX file has a frame rate of 29.97 fps.
I've tried numerous times and checked all my settings. I can't figure out why the new DPX sequence is not 23.976 fps. Any ideas what I am doing wrong here?
here are my export settings, note output and source have matching frame rates:
and here is a screen grab showing the file properties of my new exported DPX sequence, after importing back into Premiere Pro CS5, with a frame rate of 29.97 fps.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
thanks,
Jeremy

Hi there.
I am having the same exact problem, in CS6.
BUT, I have exported this project countless times, and only after my last edit has it started to export at 29. My entire movie is in 23.97. I have tried interpreting the one clip that is 29, but this does not help. It will not allow me to interpret the whole project at once.
Are there any other solutions?

Frame rate Conversion Upon Import

Hello All,
Strange things in my FCP Studio. I converted an mkv file to Prores422 frame rate 23.976 using QT 7. When I import it the Vid rate says its at 10fps???? The info tab in quicktime says the frame rate is 23.976. Then it makes me render???
Also, I should be able to mix prores422 and prores422(HQ) in the same sequence without having to render,(assuming my sequence settings are correct?) Thanks in advance.
JY

Files converted from non-camera masters sometimes need a hit on the side. use CINEMA TOOLS to CONFORM the footage to 24. That'll do it.

Help with TIFF image sequence frame rate?

I'm working on an animation sequence, its a 24p project. Whenever I import an image sequence, Premiere automatically interprets this at 29.97 (though, per the help files, it should automatically interpret at the project frame rate, but it's not). In the project panel, I use interpret footage so that it interprets at 24p. However, when I bring this image sequence into the timeline it shows at the right duration, but the end of the sequence is cut off (essentially, premiere is still reading in at 30p, but gives it the duration of 24p).
CS4 is the first version I've had this problem with.. usually, I just bring in the image sequence and it's fine.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Hi, I have the same problem as my workflow is to import R3D into AE CC and render it into Tiff sequence. At first I had changed every setting to 24, and it rendered out choppy and clipped off a few frames in the end.
Now I have tried this
Once you import Tiff, right click> Interpret Footage > Main
Then you will see black box. In this column box, there is Frame Rate column, then tick Assume this frame rate: 24 frames per second.
You have to type in 24 yourself, then it works out fine.
My guess is that Tiff is sequence image, and it DOES NOT have frame rate. So you have to tell AE to assume the imported image sequence's frame rate. Otherwise it always assumes 30 by default.
Hope it works.

Re-connecting media to different frame rate clip

Hi guys,
Wondering whether anyone can help me out to solve an error I've made...
So, I've basically completed an edit (some episodes on Final Cut Pro X, some on Final Cut 7) only to find out that I'd transcoded the media at the incorrect frame rate, 23.98 instead of 25fps. Yup, pretty big error. And now I need to redeliver the projects in the 25fps format.
I've transcoded a clip to the correct 25fps rate and tried to reconnect that clip to the 23.98fps one in the timeline, but I'm unable to reconnect as the clips are of differing frame rates.
Has anyone got any ideas how I can reconnect the clips or any suggestions that will make this situation easier to rectify rather than copying out the entire edit which will cause me to spend a week crying into my keyboard.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Olly

Hmmm...
Tried this but it brings in the media that is 23.98 and there's no way I can tell to link to the new 25fps clips. Unless there's anything else I can do? Any other way to match the clips? (the 25fps clips are that little bit longer in duration) I also have some edits in fcp7. By using cinema tools in that would I be able to change the frame rates and link up to the new 25fps?
Cheers for the advice though Russ, this way does give me the template of the 23.98 edit so that I can match the new 25fps shots to, but it's gonna be a long process.

Is there a way for the tracker to do key frames at the frame rate of the comp setting?

I was doing some tracking in a 24fps project (yes my comp settings are correct) and I was really annoyed to see that the track looked to be generating key frames at 29.98fps. Of course this means crazy jittering.
Is there a way I can change the rate that tracker generates key frames?
Please help. I use CS3.
Thank you in advance for your help.

(I assume that you mean 29.97, not 29.98.)
In all versions of After Effects, the motion-tracking keyframes are set at the frame rate of the footage item on which the layer is based, not at the composition's frame rate.
Have you checked to see that your footage item is interpreted to be 24fps?
Also, are you sure that this "jittering" that you're seeing is because of the rate of the motion-tracking keyframes?

Batch DVCPRO HD Frame Rate Converter PLEASE!

Any chance there is a way to Batch Process files with the Frame Rate Converter??

How do I change a pixel aspect ratio from HD 1920x1080 frame rate 25 to NTSC 640x480 frame rate 29.97

I upload files to a tv channel, but for them to air, they need to have a NTSC 640x480 pixel aspect ratio with a frame rate of 29.97. I currently have a .mov file HD 1920x180 frame rate 25. I deleted the original unedited files so all I have is the .mov file. I need to make my file NTSC 640x408 frame rate 29.97
Thanks please answer ASAP

If you aren't entirely happy with the image quality you get from this in FCP. consider buying Compressor ($49). Down-converting from HD to SD often introduces artifacts. Compressor has a resize filter that does a good job of minimizing those artifacts.

Incorrect imported frame rate cs4

Unfortunatly my english is not as wide scaled as my duitch, so my answers may seem a bit odd. I will however do my best on this.
I recently upgraded from cs3 to cs4, and noticed that some files are imported as 23min, wich is correct, but with a frame rate of 119,something. the source monitor also displays only a hand full of frames, which bothers me, because i need something in the middle of the file :-) I noticed there are a lot of forums on this subject, but came to the ones that know best, Adobe itself.
I hope this can be solved. It's a fresh install, ae, pr and ph.

Duitch, is that meant to be Dutch (nederlands) or Deutsch (german)?
What files are you talking about? DOCX, XLS, AVI, M2V?

QUESTION
Film=60:00 seconds
first 00:10 seconds=>a 2000FRAMES/s animation,
2nd 00:11-60:00 seconds=> 60FRAMES/s film.
Exports results in one frame-rate, I have done insufficient research as why this is still a limit,
or might not be because of simply not knowing enough yet. I created this story that could
potentially explain our source and the infinite continuation of that and why.
Thank you for your time, and I do appreciate it already if
you read this far. Information regarding the question is fine.

Imagine a movie theater. The projector is running happily away at 24 fps. All of a sudden you want to watch the movie at 60fps. You pick up your cell phone and call the lobby and talk to the manager. He thinks this is an interesting idea so he sends the projectionist up to the booth to look for a speed control on the projector. No luck, this one only runs at 24fps.
That's how video containers work. You render to a container (mov, avi, flv, whatever) and you've just bought a projector with only one speed. If you want to change speeds in the middle you have to have a very special projector. No way around that.
So the answer is that you can't render to the same container with different frame rates.
You can, however, in a single comp, have footage that runs from 1 frame per hour to 99 frames per second. You can interpret the footage placed in a comp at any frame rate from 1 per second to 99 frames per second, which would accomplish what you are trying to do, except for the part that the first hour of the movie rendered movie would contain more than one frame.
There are different types of containers however that can display each frame for a specific time interval. Animated Gif is the simplest movie container of this type. Flash is the most common. These are non standard video containers and you have to control the timing outside of AE.
It would help if we had a little less escortaric posing of your question. What exactly, in an actionable question, are you trying to do and why?
