FCP5 removes last frame from any 23.98fps movie

I'm having an issue with 23.98fps Quicktimes in FCP. When I play the clip in Quicktime, the frame count is correct. When the same movie is opened in the FCP viewer or dropped in a bin, FCP removes the last frame. For example, say I have 2 clips, identical in every way except for frame rate:
Clip A - 720p Photo-JPEG 120 frames 24fps
Clip B - 720p Photo-JPEG 120 frames 23.98fps
In QT7, both clips play correctly, contain all frames, and are reported in the info window to be 5 seconds exactly. In FCP Clip A, plays correctly, contains all frames, and has a reported length of 00:00:05:00. Clip B is missing the last frame and has a reported length of 00:00:04:23.
I have done this same test with a 480 frame clip as well with the same results. QT7 reports 20 seconds, FCP reports 00:00:19:23.
I have had this problem with quicktime movies from different sources as well, not just QT movies I have created. It is imperative that I find out what is causing this issue. If anyone can offer any suggestions/answers at all, it would be much appreciated.

hello anthony.
i can't offer any explanation, but i can offer what might be a work around. i am assuming you need to work at 23.98 and that you are receiving exact frame count files.
if you receive files @ 24fps which are correct, try using cinema tools to "conform" these files to 23.98 ... just open the file from within cinema tools and hit the conform button. i'd be interested to know if these conformed files maintain the correct frame count.
a guess might be that the export or transcode process might be the source of the error.

  • Remove last frame after live stream

    Hi,
    How can I remove/reset the last frame sent by a live streaming client? I'm using FMS 3.5.
    It can be a server or client side solution. any ideas?
    tks.

    Hi,
    What do you mean by removing the last frame from live stream?
    A live stream that is published to the server and there is a client which is subscribing to that live stream. And you dont want to send the last frame of the stream to the subscriber, is it? Or something else?

  • How to remove the frame from an ActiveX Web Browser window

    I'm using a web browser window to display content from a web application in my LV front panel.  I'd really like the content to appear as native parts of the front panel rather than being inside a frame.  Is there a method that will allow me to hide or remove the frame from the ActiveX control?  I've tried to make it a custom control and edit the decoration out but that does not seem to work.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Quite right, in my 8.2 the web browser is already borderless (probably transparent). If your web browser window doesn't look good you should be able to insert it into the activeX one, the other should be a special case.

  • How to remove a meter from an installation after move-out

    Hi,
    Could anyone please tell me how to remove a meter from an installation after move-out and if the installation was blocked before move-out.
    I was trying to remove the meter from an installation which was blocked before move-out. And if i remove the blocking after move-out, it is still giving me this message that the installation is blocked.
    Thanks in advance.

    Dear Birendra,
    You can NEVER remove a Device (for Billing Related or FULL removal), since you need to save a Removal read while doing the removal. Hence, you can not create a MR ( Reason 01/02/03/06/16/17/21/22), without a Active contract. This is a Basic Metering Rule.
    You will have to do the removal on the same day of the Move out.
    Any additional questions?

  • Removing text frames from rdf export format

    After a report has been exported in rdf format, can anyone tell me if there is a way to remove the text frames from the document, so that the formating is retained but by using word's tabs etc.
    Our client needs to manually add sections to the document after the report has been generated and we find that because of the text frames the document formatting gets ruined when new sections are added to the file.

    I don't know whether any of this will help?
    According to the manual there are only a very limited range of adjustments you can make to iMovie projects.
    Turn iMovie adjustments on or off
    When editing a project in iMovie, you can adjust several video attributes, such as exposure, brightness, and saturation, in the Project Browser. If you import an iMovie project that has these adjustments into Final Cut Pro, the adjustments are retained and appear in the Color area of the Video inspector as an iMovie item.
    Although you cannot modify the adjustments added in iMovie, you can choose whether they are applied to the clip or not.
    Note: Video adjustments you make to clips in the iMovie Event Browser are not retained and do not appear in Final Cut Pro.
    Turn a clipʼs iMovie adjustments on or off
    In the Timeline, select a clip with iMovie adjustments applied, and select or deselect the iMovie checkbox in the Color area of the Video inspector.
    Note: The iMovie adjustments appear only in the Timeline, not in the Event Browser.

  • Java update 2012-006 did not remove Java plugin from any browser

    I successfully installed Java update 2012-006 via Software Update on my iMac running OS X Lion 10.7.5 (German) and it updated the Java runtime to version 1.6.0_37 and removed the Java Preferences application as expected, but it did not remove the Java plugin from any browser!
    Safari and Firefox can still use the Java plugin as before.
    I repaired permissions, rebooted, manually downloaded Java update 2012-006 and successfully installed it again without any change to the Java plugin: it is still present on my system and fully functional from any browser!
    The web is full with messages from users missing the Java plugin after installing this update - but I could not find anything about the plugin not being removed!
    Is anyone experiencing the same behaviour under Lion? I thought this would happen only under Snow Leopard...
    What should I do now? Can I really trust this "successfull installation" of Java update 2012-006 on my system?
    Thanks,
    Michael

    Thanks - I will keep the symlink in place and I won't touch the Deploy bundle, because I need the plugin in Safari and I don't need Oracle's Java 7 for now...
    If the plugin is supposed to stay in the Deploy bundle, this could help others who miss the plugin - they could just recreate the symlink, right?
    To summarize I think we can state, that the Java update 2012-006 for Lion and Mountain Lion sometimes leaves the symlink in /Library/Internet Plugins/ untouched.
    The circumstances that lead to this behaviour are still unknown.
    The install log in Console shows that the scripts to create links and to delete obsolete files ran okay, but there was an error with the "postinstall" script. In spite of this the installation succeeded:

    Does anybody know what "com.apple.mrt.uiagent" and "com.apple.mrt" stands for?
    Obviously the "postinstall" script provides an invalid argument (at least on my system).
    I have no idea if this is related to the Java Plugin symlink not being removed...

  • How to remove a frame from a goto Random Frame set?

    I'm building myself a simple set of Flash Cards for school
    and the setup I have is to goto a random frame where ActionScript
    loads in a question I've put on that frame. I'm using variables to
    keep score of the ones I get right and wrong.
    What I want to be able to do is when I get an answer right
    and Flash goes to the next frame randomly, to have this current
    frame REMOVED from the options of frames it can go to. This way, it
    won't repeat any questions I've answered right.

    although I would suggest an Array based structure and dynamic
    textfields, as opposed to a frame-nav based system here - you could
    use an Array to store the current number of the frame you are on,
    then when navigating to the next frame question, you could 'check'
    against all other number stored in the array and choose a different
    one if the test returns true. something like:

    You can only turn it off if you have a passcode on the lock screen - in which case you do it via Settings > General > Passcode Lock > Picture Frame off. If you don't have a passcode lock then you can't disable it

  • Why is the green screen visible on the last frame before the next clip?

    Hey guys!
    Maybe I'm ******** but i m having trouble here. I have "key-ed" a bunch of clips and successfully removed the green screen from them. But when placed in the timeline, the green screen of the clip reappears for the single frame before a next clip starts.
    I've re-rendered and chopped ends off but the green screen keeps appearing in the last frame of any keyed clip that is about to cut to a different clip.
    Where am i going wrong?

    Hey! I tried both suggestions but even the self contained quicktime file has the green screen frames popping up.
    I just dont get it, it's infuriating!
    I used "chroma keyer" effect on the clip, only enable "key on saturation", the green screen disappears, I place clip on V2 and image on V1. Image is then visible where the green screen was. All is well until the last frame before a next clip because on that ast frame the green screen appears again. Where am I going wrong? Please help!
