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?

With a handful of frames, and needing something in the middle, did you try your middlefinger?

  • After Effects CC import "Sequence Footage" frame rate settings in "Import" preferences

    Just started using the new AE CC (v12 as Adobe will not refer to it as) I noticed one thing that seems to work differently from CS6 and that is in the preferences for import Sequence footage settings.  It doesn't seem to work normally, at least for me.  I don't know if this is an issue related to how AE CC works with the cloud but the dfault frame rate for sequence footage importing is 30fps.  I am trying to import footage that is natively 23.97 at 24 fps.  So like in CS6 I go to Preferences - Import - Sequence Footage - frame per second and change it from 30 to 24 frames per second.  Closed the software, opened it back up, checked the settings and saw that they took, it still says 24 frames per second like I told it.  But when I import a piece of 23.976 footage, it comes in at 23.976 as opposed to the 24 fps I set it as.  Same goes for 30 fps footage, it comes in at 30 fps and not 24.  User error is always my first assumption, I'm not proud i just want it to work, am I doing something wrong or just confused?  Thanks for any help.  p.s.  help is not someone responding with, "I don't know" or "I don't have AECC yet".  I know somebody is going to!

    Hi Tim,
    WOW!  Thanks for the super-fast reply!  As soon as I posted this I realised I should have mentioned that I am importing DPX files.  I do import quicktimes as well but know that the footage import does not apply to a single file, only a sequence of files.  But I still wonder if I may be either doing something wrong or am just a little confused.  I have been using After Effects since CS3 doing compositing for film and I always use DPX sequences.  I did a bunch of comparing and back and forth with AE CS6 and AECC while trying to figure this out.  I always set my preferences up when I upgrade before I start working and I always set them up the same.  I have been using CS6 since last July and it still works the same.  What I did is imported five or six different DPX sequences, some were rendered out as 24 fps, some at 30 and some at 23.976.  Assuming AE looks at the metadata to decide how to auto interpret, AE CC opened them all at their native frame rates of the just mentioned 24, 30 and 23.976 respectively, even though I told it to import at 24fps in the preferences.  I also imported the same files in AE CS6 and they all opened at 24 fps like always.  I know I can change the frame rate in the "Interpret footage" option, that is what I have been doing today so that I can work with footage in 24fps but since I have it set in the preferences to import image sequences at 24fps, I am perplexed as to why it does not do so, so I do not have to interpret the footage to my preferred frame rate, as is the case in AE CS6 as well as it was in CS 5.5 and CS 3.  Since I was lucky enough to have an Adobe employee chime in Tim, I would be curious to see what you may find if you recreated this scenario.  Would it be possible for you or someone at Adobe to set the sequence footage import frame rate to 24 fps in the preferences then try to open a piece of footage that is natively 23.976 fps in both AE CS6 and AE CC?  Like I said, I certainly beleive I may be doing something wrong but I would be very curious to see what you find on your side.  I would not be suprised if it imported at 24 fps in AE CS6 and 23.976 fps in AE CC.

  • 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

  • Frame duplication during 2vuy (in .avi) import on Premiere CS4

    Hello:
    I am currently trying to import a complete Premiere CS4 (version 4.2.1) project on my laptop, Windows 7 - 64bit, which doesn't have an AJA Kona 3 card installed. The detailed file specification of the source file is given further below and had been created on a system with AJA's Kona card. The source files are in an AVI wrapper, in OpenDML, with 2vuy and had been created by the AJA Kona card on a different system.
    The file gets imported into Premiere, and it displays the correct file length, here of about 56mn 24s. However, I can only access the first few seconds. If I drag the video file to the timeline, I realized that every frame is present for about 2 minutes and 40 seconds, which results in about 18 seconds of the original file length. To explain it in different words - I have the same frame at position 00:00:00, 00:00:01, 00:00:02 until 02:39:24.
    The original files can be properly displayed within the windows media player, which utilizes a YCbCr Codec from Drastic Technology Inc. Therefore, I strongly believe that the source files aren't corrupted. What should I do now?

    Hello Filmemacher,
    AJA has a QuickTime Codec out for the Format you need. The Codec is free and the File can be played/exported through QuickTime (Pro Version only). Another Solution is the Drastic Codec Suite that has all the AJA/Kona, DVS, Optibase Codecs plus the normal ones from Windows (IYUV, I420, UYVY, YUY2, YVYU) in one Codec. The download Link has been updated with the new Versions on the Drastic Website. The Drastic Codec works for AVI in Windows and MOV for QuickTime for encoding and decoding Films. I use them myself for a long Time now without any Problems.
    Please note: There are some Links to old Versions of the Drastic/Optibase Codecs in the Internet, mainly in Eastern Countrys. Stay away from them because of many Virus alerts and unstable outdated Versions.
    Best regards, Mickey
    Here is the Link to Download the new Version 3.4 with Vista/7/8 64 Bit Support:
    http://www.drastictech.com/download_codec.html
    Other Platforms supported: Windows 9x/SE/ME/NT/2K/XP/Vista/7 (all 32 Bit)

  • Sync and frame rate problems importing video to Flash CS3

    Just like the subject states, I am indeed having frame rate problems importing video to Flash CS3.
    When I export a video from Premiere with the settings:
    1280x720
    frame rate of 23.976
    using H264 or Animation (basically every codec produces the same results),
    "embed video on SWF and play in timeline"
    When I do this the file exports fine. Playing it in Quicktime works fine and the audio syncs up no problem. But when I import it into Flash using the same settings, for some reason the movie clip is now too fast in that the video does not match the audio and seems to be at more like 12 fps now (just a guestimate). The action of the video is over long before the audio even comes in.I have verified that the frame rate is correct in Flash so it's not that.
    I've done this literally hundreds of times in the past and suddenly it does not work and I can not figure out why. I'm not even really using video, but actually artwork that I am putting together as an animatic for an animated piece so the video could not have been imported incorrectly or digitized wrong either. Can someone out there please tell me how to make this work? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
    -Mike

    Thanks for you quick response however it really doesn't apply to what I am doing in any way. I will not be uploading the video to a server. I am using the imbed function so I can use it as a layer and then animate over it. It is just reference and will ultimately be deleted. The Fla file does indeed carry the same specs as I stated in my first post. I have done it this way dozens of times and I am trying to figure out why it suddenly will not work.

  • Frame rates and Import

    I am recording with a Canon XA10 set at 60fps but when I Import the files to the timeline they go down to 29.97 fps. Is that the only option? I have been pouring through the help files and stuff but can't find anything about changing the frame rate in Premiere Pro CS5. the output looks fine but we wanted to do a time study and need to know for sure what the frame rate is on both the raw AVCHD file recorded at 60fps and the file Premiere makes which appears to always be at 29.97fps.
    Am I missing someting? (again?)

    Chances are the camera maker's incorrect labeling has again caused confusion here.
    The standard is to list only the frame rate, whether it's interlaced or progressive footage, never the field rate.  But camera makers have taken to labeling things incorrectly.  What should be labeled as 30i (or 29.97i) often get's labeled as 60i (or 59.94i).  It's actually the same footage, label two ways.  The camera labels it incorrectly at 60i (59.94i), but PP sees it for what it is, 30i (29.97i).

  • Importing EDL project frame rate is always 23.98

    Hi There,
    I'm importing a 24 frame EDL. All of the import settings are set to 24 fps. However on import, the project frame rate is always 23.98.
    I have added the number 24 to the defaulteframerate section of the preferences file, but no luck.
    Anyone found a solution to this?
    Thanks

    Just a wild guess since I don't normally work in 24 fps... all of us NTSC-biased types accept that 23.98 (more accurately, if not absolutely precisely expressed as 23.976) is the "pull-down" frame rate that results from a telecine transfer, and is the rate that is assumed, corresponding to 29.97 or 1000/1001.
    This framerate is emulated in a number of "Digital Cinema" electronic origin formats.
    Absolute 24.0000 fps is a bit rare in these parts and in reality probably would only come up if one were working with a dpx image sequence properly scanned, not telecined.
    Not saying that 24.000 does not exist -- I'd say that it is just as uncomfortable a fit in 25 fps-land as it is here! And Color / Final Touch has been notoriously bad with 25 fps.
    good luck and merry christmas....

  • Import mp4 h.264 from camcorder results in wrong frame rate

    I have recently bought a PAL Samsung VP HMX20C camcorder that records 1080 50i or 1080 25p but when I import the video files into Final Cut Pro 6 the frame rate of the clips are 59.29 and 29.29 respectively. If these files are played with Quicktime or Mpeg Streamclip the info says that they are 50 fps and 25 fps. What do I need to do to get them to be recognised as PAL clips in FCP?
    Thanks in advance.

    Many thanks for your replies Tom. Can you recommend the fastest way to convert these clips as I have tried the FCP Media Manager and it won't let me change the frame rate back to 25fps. I would like to know the quickest and easiest way to start editing with this media as the reason I bought this camcorder was to reduce the amount of time to ingest the footage as I was using DV PAL tapes before and had to ingest them in real time.

  • 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.

  • Importing video  Frame Rate Off???

    I am importing video which was shot on a DVX 100 at 24p the image plays fine on my playback deck but when I Play the digitized footage in FC it appears to be in fast forward... Not sure if this is a Frame Rate Issue???

    I don't understand. Did the captured clips playback fine in fcp last night? How did you digitize them? You need to either use the correct capture preset in fcp or modify an existing preset. If you're using another piece of software to capture, you gotta let us know this info.

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • Any way to make AI import obey project frame rate?

    HI
    apologies if this has been asked before but the search facility does not seem to be after effects only focussed.
    I keep getting caught out by 1080P dimensioned AI files always being imported as 29.97 fps even though my import prefs and Project settings are 25 fps.
    Is there a way I can hack this into working
    (freelance at a place with version CS5 today)

    When you create a new comp it should follow the last composition that you created. IOW, create a new NTSC D1 Comp that's 30 seconds long and the next new comp you create will be the same.
    When you import an Illustrator or Photoshop file as a Composition the frame size, if it's a standard frame size, sets the frame rate of the composition. IOW, Import a PSD that 720 X 480 as a comp and it will come in as a DV comp with a frame rate of 29.97. Import a file as a comp that's pal frame size and it should come in as a PAL composition at 25 fps.
    I haven't looked but I suspect that this may be set somewhere deep in the preferences file. You can edit the prefs file with a text editor. Someone smarter than me may be able to tell you where the setting is, or you may be able to find it by doing a search of the prefs file.

  • 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,

    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?
