How to remove 24pa pulldown?

Hello, my first post as a new CS6 user coming from FCP7. So far I'm loving it.
Here's the thing; I dragged some 24pa footage off a HVX200a P2 card onto the disc then imported to a 1080/23.98 timeline.
All looked great until I applied the warp stabilizer or the C2 lock&load stabilizer plug-in then everything went crazy not stable at all.
I looked at the file properties and it said Frame Rate: 29.97 (24p) and I assumed the 24p was the pulldown removed.
I captured the same fooage through FCP's capture window that has a dedicated pulldown removal button then imported that.
The properties show Frame Rate: 23.976 and the filters work fine.
Can you tell me what I'm missing please?
Thanks.

The properties on the left is what I imported straight from the disc, the properties on the right are from disc captured through FCP7. Note the frame rates also no idea why I get a data rate analysis on one and not the other.
Thanks for the link and I've already seen it so I did capture the entire contrents.
I know how 24pa works and for that reason I agree and usually always shoot 720/24pn but this is a specific project that wants 1080i/24pa.
I've searched but I can't find an answer to this issue.
Thanks.

How to Remove Advanced Pulldown?

Some camcorders, such as the Panasonic AG-DVX100A (which is what I have), are designed to shoot in progressive mode at 24 fps (literally 23.98 fps) and then record the video to tape as a 60-field interlaced signal by applying a special kind of pull-down called advanced 2:3:3:2 pull-down. With previous versions of Final Cut, you could remove the redundant fields created by the camera’s pull-down, so that you can edit at 23.98 fps or 24 fps.
This was done previously by the following:
In Final Cut Pro, select the clips or sequence.
Choose Tools > Remove Advanced Pulldown.
How do I do this in Final Cut Pro X?
These menus do not exist and when I drop a previously existing clip into a new project there are duplicate frames (whether I choose to create the project properties based on the properties of the first clip imported or I specify manually I want it to be a 23.98p timeline), meaning that FCPX has not removed the pulldown automatically.
When I import a clip from tape/source then FCPX handles it correctly.
But there needs to be an option to fix this in already existing clips that have been imported prior to the existence of FCPX without re-importing all the footage.

well, in case anyone else who uses a dvx100 has this problem with previously imported 16x9 24pA .AVI files that you want to use in FCPX here is what i had to do. use compressor. convert each of the AVIs using these settings:

Final Cut won't capture from the DVX100b? How do you remove 2323 pulldown?

I connected the DVX to Final Cut and loaded Log and Capture. When I click capture Now, the black final cut screen just hangs and it maintains saying "waiting for timecode ... must be in vtr mode" The camera is in VCR mode. I'm able to look through the tape from the Log and Capture screen but it just hangs when told to actually capture?
Also, I have footage in regular 24p mode, but I don't see an option to capture and remove 2323 pulldown, only 2332 which is only for 24pA?
Thanks!

If you want to mix 24P and 60i in a timeline, DO NOT remove pulldown. 24P with a pulldown plays nicely with 60i. Straight 24fps won't go into a 60i timeline without smearing or adding a pulldown. 60i won't go into a 24fps timeline without mushing the frames together. Not pretty...

Removing Advanced Pulldown from AVI files

I've recently switched from Vegas 4.0 to Final Cut Pro 5.1 and I'm trying to remove the advanced pulldown from my AVI files. I tried using Cinema Tools and it could not use the AVI. Then I tried using FCP tools/remove advanced pulldown option and the file went offline. Can sombody tell me how to do this?
Thanks

It wasn't out of sync before. I shot it on the Panasonic DVX100 in 24pa. Removed the pulldown and edited the film in Vegas. Now I want to transfer it to FCP change it to 16X9 and make a 16X9 24P DVD in DVD Studio Pro. When I did copy it back to tape from Vegas I used LP instead of SP so I could fit the entire movie on a mini dv tape. Maybe that has something to do with it not being able to remove the pulldown during capture? I think I'm going to try and split it up into 2 tapes and record sp mode.

Remove Advanced Pulldown and Reverse Telecine...

Hey guys,
I have read all the hundreds of postings here about problems with removing advanced pulldown. Some people mention using compressor to get the clips to 23.98. I was happy to find that indeed compressor did get the clips that I couldn't remove pulldown in FCP on to 23.98, and that those clips play on the same timeline as my other 23.98 clips. HOWEVER, the clips that were reverse telecined, then brought into FCP play with a stroby effect... There's weird horizontal lines through them. Anyone know what is going on? I guess I will start re-logging and capturing the clips as shorter clips and then try to remove the advanced pulldown on them (from what I understand FCP can't remove the pulldown if there is a cut within a clip...) but if anyone knows of an easier way to deal with this, let me know. I am working with 50 hours of footage, probably 5 of which I couldn't get the advanced pull down off of, so it's a lot of work! Thanks!

I found this answer to one of the posts about removing advanced pulldown problems:
"Are you certain it's 24PA and not 24P?
You might be able to break it into smaller chunks with QT Pro and try removing advanced pulldown on that, but that's just a shot in the dark..."
Patrick
Can someone explain how to use Quicktime Pro to break the clips into smaller chunks without going through and re-logging and capturing all over? Although, I already put all the clips that didn't get the pulldown removed in FCP through cinema tools to make them 23.98 too...I suppose this will make it impossible for me to use the QT PRo method...I am losing days of work here making smaller and smaller clips out of this material by logging and capturing over and over so I'm desperate to make sure there's not an easier way around this...
Outside of when you are tranferring to film, does anyone have a really good reason to shoot 24pA on the dvx100? With this project it was definitely a mistake!

Problems removing Advanced Pulldown frames

I'm relatively new to 24PA, until now, I have captured quite a few projects now without any problems. The footage is always shot DVCPRO 50, I use the Panasonic AJ-SD93 Deck to capture the footage, selecting "remove advanced pulldown frames" in the FCP capture settings, and end up with great 23.98 progressive advanced footage.
The most recent project I've been working on, we received tapes that were shot by the same production group, same settings, same camera, and I was capturing with the same deck, same FCP settings, etc...however, after capturing, the files were not 23.98, but 29.97 (as a test, I captured from tapes in a previous project, it immediately came in as 23.98).
I tried to solve the issue after the fact by selecting the "Remove Advanced Pulldown" selection in the tool menu and received the error message *"File does not contain frames encoded using Advanced Pulldown".*
The 29.97 footage, based on my knowledge, seemed to indicate that it was, in fact, 24PA. For two reasons, one - every fifth frame in the 29.97 footage was a "split" frame, and two, breaking the footage down into fields, it seemed to have the 2-3-3-2 cadence associated with 24PA. However, for whatever reason, Final Cut could not find the cadence.
Why might this be?
I'd appreciate any informed opinions, but I can say that my guess is it has something to do with timecode and timecode breaks. The footage had an awful lot of timecode breaks and the timecode was being forced. I am wondering if this has something to do with why FCP could not pick up the cadence in the footage. (The only other variable that changed from previous successful 24PA projects is that these tapes were dubbed, and perhaps the dub house - which has shown itself prone to the occasional mistake - messed something up, but in this instance, don't see any evidence of that.)
Ultimately - I worked around the issue just fine, but it only makes matters more confusing, I brought the footage into Cinema Tools and did a Reverse Telecine (3:2 pulldown) and the footage turned it into clean-looking 23.98 progressive footage. Like I said before, analyzing the footage appeared to reveal that it was certainly 24PA with a 2-3-3-2 cadence and not 24P with a 2-3-2-3 cadence.
Any thoughts are welcome, thanks -

Just a thought: if the dub house made the dubs over SDI or analog, then the 24PA "flags" that were on the originals were likely not retained. That may be why FCP isn't seeing the pulldown cadence. I believe the only way to retain those advanced pulldown flags is to dub via firewire.
You can try capturing at 29.97 and running the files through Cinema Tools. Or see if the production company can send you the camera originals.

Problem removing advanced pulldown

Hi There,
I have some 24p footage I digitized at 29.97 by accident. When I go to the tools menu and select "remove advanced pulldown" i get an error that says "break in advanced pulldown cadence (pattern) found near t." Any ideas?

Are you certain it's 24PA and not 24P?
You might be able to break it into smaller chunks with QT Pro and try removing advanced pulldown on that, but that's just a shot in the dark...

Hi,experts
As you know, in default case , the alv report will display two sort buttons(ascending ,descending) on its toolbar , So How to remove the sort buttons on toolbar in ALV report?
Thanks for your help .

Hi guixin,
1. Before calling REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY
2. Write this code :
data : excl type SLIS_T_EXTAB.
data : exclwa type SLIS_EXTAB.
exclwa = '&OUP'.
append exclwa to excl.
exclwa = '&ODN'.
append exclwa to excl.
3. Then while calling the FM,
pass this parameter also .
IT_EXCLUDING = excl
It will work fantastic.

How to remove calendar in ical

I clicked on a link that added a calendar to my ical which has now synced with my Google calendar and added all the events to it as well. Unfortunately, I did not realize that this was going to add every single instance (multiple events per day) to all my calendars.
I'd like to reverse this action but there is not easy way to do this in ical it seems. I cannot "delete" the calendar because it does not appear in the list of subscribed calendars in ical.
I subscribed to two calendars this way and I'd like to remove them both. I also have to now deal with how to remove hundreds of entries in my Google calendar....and it seems there is no batch delete there either unless I pay for a third party program....arrrgh
If anyone can shed some light on this I'd be most grateful.

Thanks for your reply. I "subscribed" to a couple of motorsports calendars in iCal by visiting a direct link on the Apple website like this one: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/calendars/2011motogpworldchampionshipcalen darprovisional_gpticketltd.html
This adds the events contained in this calendar directly to iCal and I can't for the life of me find a way to "unsubscribe" or eliminate these entries short of erasing them manually one by one. Unfortunately, there are many of them.
If you know how I may go about doing this in an efficient manner, please let me know!

Adobe Creative Cloud (Desktop) does not work properly. The application is blocked : it could not be launch neither stopped. I'm on MAC Yosemite OS, does anyone know how to remove it properly or to force its stop. It does not appear in the launched applications.

I received no error message. The application was just trying to find applications unsuccessfully.
I am using MAC OS 10.10.1
I tried to uninstall the application but it seems that a kind of deamon is still installed thus providing me to reinstall properly. Do you know where are the elements to remove in order to get my machine just like before ?
Otherwise I would have to reinstall everything and this would be a pain.
