PAL -  NTSC frame rate not changing

I'm using compressor for the first time (version 2.0.1) and I'm trying to do a standards conversion of PAL to NTSC.
I selected advance format conversion DV NTSC. It works fine except the frame rate is left at 25 fps even though the inspector had 29.97 in it before I submitted. I've tried it a few times now but the frame rate isn't changing to NTSC rates.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Mike

How are you determining the ending framerate (what utility or method)?
Also, the QuickTime Player always uses a 30fps counter, thus it can be a little misleading if you go simply by the head position counter.
As for using Compressor 2 to do standards conversion, unless you explicitly turn on the new Frame Controls feature and use the Rate Conversion option you will just get resizing and frame duplication when you convert from 25fps PAL to 29.97 NTSC.
Perhaps, however, you two are using some other technique to determine framerate (I'm just looking at what the QuickTime Player reports and also by counting the actual displayed frames when I single-step the movie -- thus my original question). I've not done a lot of standards conversion, but I just tried to twice-convert a short NTSC video segment and it seemed to work fine when I reconverted from PAL back to the original NTSC. However, since I'm NTSC based I had to create my own PAL after starting from an NTSC original (probably not a completely valid test since Compressor is doing both conversions).
So, another question would be what is the source of your PAL video? I'm sure you did not "synthesize" it as I did, but maybe there is a conflict between your source and Compressor.
In any case, I'm using Compressor 2.0.1 and I just converted an NTSC clip to PAL and back again (PAL to NTSC) and the framerates seemed to work fine (using Compressor's Advanced Format Conversions presets). When I went from NTSC to PAL I ended up with a 25fps movie that had dropped frames from the original. Then, when I went from PAL to NTSC I ended up with a 29.97fps movie that had frame duplicates (unless I explicitly use the Frame Controls -- Rate Conversion option and then with the higher quality options I get newly generated frames using Compressor's so-called optical flow technology).
Also, Mike, your tag line indicates that you are using Mac OS X 10.2.X, but that can't be the case if you are using Compressor 2 since it requires QT7 which is only available on 10.3.9 and 10.4.X.

  • 23.98 frame rate gets changed to 29.97?

    I have a file that is a 23.98 frame rate.
    I am trying to create a simple DVD file.
    I use the pre-set in compressor for best quality.
    I changed no other settings.
    For some reason- the DVD files are compressed into 29.97(?)
    When i play these in DVD studio pro I get interlaced lines and it looks very bad.
    I imported the source file (23.98)- it's a bit large- but I was able to view it in playdown. And it looked fine.
    I NEED to get these files reduced for DVD studio pro- BUT I DO NOT want to alter the frame rate.
    I tried going into some deeper settings in Compressor and making sure everything was reading 23.98 progressive and it was.
    It still spits out a 29.97 file.
    help?

    What camera was the footage shot on? If you open the movie in QT what does it say about the format?
    (A screen shot of the inspector window would be best.)

  • Frame Rate & Resolution change with synchronized clip

    Does anyone know why a Canon 7d file recorded at 1920x1080 29.97fps changes to a 1280x720 23.97fps file when a synchronized clip with a separate audio file is created?
    After selecting the synchronized clip in the event browser I can edit the compound clip settings to change back to 1920x1080, but 23.98 is the only framerate selectable.  The sync worked beautifully.  My import preferences are set to create optimized media - 422 ProRes.

    Well, I went to the clip that was mentioned in the source file and selected it to do a frame rate conversion and its source file was correct. I hit cancel and went back to the my desired clip and the time the source file was correct.
    Doing a few more conversion the correct source file doesn't always come up correctly, but I just bounce around selecting a few different clips without actually doing the conversions and it eventually fixes itself...
    It's just buggy!

  • Frame rate changes after psd imort

    I'm not so experienced in Motion. When i start i use a PAL preset to create a new project. After that i want to import a psd file as project, in order to animate all layers. After that the frame rate has changed in 30 fps! I can't find anything in de user manual about it.
    G4 pb 1,67   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   1.5 gb ram

    You're creating 2 separate projects when you do this - one when you created a project using a PAL preset, then a second time when you imported a PSD file AS a project (this creates a brand-new project using the PSD file, it doesn't import it into the one you already created). The frame rate of a project can't be changed after it's been created.
    What you need to do is create a new PAL project, then drag & drop the PSD file from the File Browser into your PAL project, hold there a second and choose "import all layers" from the drop menu, or use the Import command (NOT "Import As Project") to bring your PSD into your project.

  • 23.976 frame rate explained

    This post was triggered from this this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4741388#4741388
    I just thought it best to start a new one
    Okay iSchwartz, with the speed of a flying bullet, and with help from my fellow members of the IBS (Institute of Broadcast Sound - in the UK), I think I have some answers...
    24P is indeed simply video at 24frames per second with the "P" meaning Progressive scan. Its a video format invented to be compatible with film. It also means that the footage will have more of a "film look" when its converted to TV frame rates for broadcast as it will have the same process applied to it as film footage.
    As to where 23.976 fps comes in (with regards to Logic) is rather more vague!
    (warning - the following contains some speculation!)
    As all will know because film is shot at 24fps it needs a special conversion process to be shown on an NTSC TV of 29.97fps. The process could just speed the film up but it would look funny and so they sort of duplicate some of the film's frames instead, to get the frame rate increased. The process used would result in a frame rate of 30fps so to bring it in line with the (cumbersome) NTSC frame rate they have to slow the film down slightly (by 0.1%) before they "scan" in the film's frames to make video.
    ...and guess what a 0.1% speed reduction of 24fps results in? Yes - 23.976!
    so...
    23.976 is the frame rate of the telecine machine when playing film to transfer to NTSC tv. The process involves slowing the 24fps film by 0.1% to 23.976 and applying a 2:3 pulldown picture process, resulting in NTSC's frame rate of 29.97fps
    Now the question is why would you want Logic to work in 23.976fps?
    It is possible (I don't know for sure) that when you shoot with film (ie 24fps), destined for tv that the programme is edited at 23.976, ready for the telecine process, and so this is the frame rate used during the post production process - As it is the time reference used in the edit then we need logic to work at this rate too so we're all in time.
    It is also possible that the latest HD video cameras provide a shooting frame rate of 23.976 fps so that the "slow down" process of the past is not required.
    Having said that to view the 23.976 fps pictures on telly the video needs to be converted to 30fpsDrop - or you need a display that can work at this unusual frame rate. I am not sure what the implication of all this would be for the musician "working to picture".
    One thing I would say, is that musicians are not alone in having much confusion with frame rates and time code, especially now Hi def has arrived. I would strongly advise double checking with "production", particularly the dubbing editor, if that frame rate requested ~really~ is the right one!
    I hope I haven't confused the issue even more with all that! Don't take any of this as gospel as I am still learning too. I trust someone will provide corrections and additions.

    Rohan,
    I agree in so far as the musician should not have to worry about the technical aspects of picture, but the composer is working within a team of people who have to be able to communicate effectively. the composer is also part of the production's overall workflow and so the composer's work methods can be dependent on productions.
    To answer you points individually...
    - when the telecine is created, and then sent for offline editing, it is the offline edit that you receive with the BITC or the striped LTC (rare these days) that should be your guide. obviously in the states with the confusing NTSC format, it is important to be sure what format they have used in the offline process, but ultimately it is the production facility to ensure you have a video edit that you can work to
    Your first sentence says it all. If the offline edit is in 23.976 then presumably this is what you'll get sent. I have no idea how this will get delivered as the format would not work on video tape, you wouldn't be able to view it on a standard TV either. You could view it as a quicktime movie. That is the only way I can think of.
    I agree it should be up to production to provide you with what you can work with but how far must they accommodate? I doubt anyone would be too happy providing U-matic tapes these days. For my last job I wanted QT movies on a DVD-R but I had to settle for DV tapes and capture myself. Lets face it, as technology gets cheaper and more accessible we are increasingly expected to be able to handle all those advances!
    - so the music you create can either sync to a master clock (which is rare other than word clock which is not for video syncing anyway) or simply to the QT or VHS that you have been provided with which should have standard frame rates. you simply compose your music based on that sync
    I don't know what you mean by "master clock" in this context, and as you point out word clock has no timing information at all and is irrelevant in a timecode discussion. Yes you work to the movie you've been given, but what if its using 23.976fps? If it is, it wont be on VHS - and, you wont be able to sync properly to it in Logic as Logic doesn't work with 23.976
    If production provides you with a "special copy" in say standard NTSC 29.97fps then the editors timecode will be different to yours. You wont be able to talk timecodes with them over the phone for example. For them to do this production will have to convert the footage specially for you using 3:2pulldown telecine process (so the film plays at the right speed) and I'm not sure they would pay for that!
    - the issue is more critical in the dubb, but generally 1 second of music at whatever frame rate is still 1 second of music. when you send your music in it is almost never smpte locked unless you have delivered via a timecoded DAT something which is very rare these days. basically it simply measures the sample rate and then syncs within the DAW in the dub
    1 second in NTSC's 29.97fps is 1second at 23.976fps which is 1 second in PAL's 25fps too;-) Its the number of frames within one second that has changed. The problem is the format of the movie. you can play it in QT but not on the telly and Logic doesn't have a time base to match with it. It is likely that logic will be able to follow the movie in QT (not sure of that), or "chase" it, but Logic's own smpte display will not match the movie's BITC. Indeed all of logic's time references will not match the movie's.
    when you send your music in it is almost never smpte locked unless you have delivered via a timecoded DAT something which is very rare these days. basically it simply measures the sample rate and then syncs within the DAW in the dub
    Ever heard of BWF? Bounce your finished music in logic as a WAV file and you actually get a timecode stamped "Broadcast WAV" file: a file that has the SMPTE time of where the music starts in the film. The timing info is embedded in the file. All the dub mixer has to do is press a key-command to place this file in the right place in the film. I worked this way on my last project. (Its also how logic can place any audio file into "its original recording position")
    Without using timecode I'm wondering how you tell "the dub" where the music should go in the film? - I'm genuinely curious. In the past when delivering music without timecode I would still say, in a written note for eg, the track starts at some timecode point (as referenced to the BITC for eg). This is why the composers timecode needs to be the same as the dub/editor's!
    - it is simply important for the people sending you their film to agree how many frames consitute their second. if you have a VHS playout from the offline, you should work to whatever format that VHS or DVD comes in; NTSC or PAL. it's not your job to worry about the film to offline telecine
    A nice thought in theory:-)
    It shouldn't be our job to worry about such things (bars, beats, keys and harmony are enough for me!) but we may not have the choice if we want the job!
    Don't get me wrong here Rohan. I don't profess to understanding all this stuff properly and I have never been asked to work in 23.976fps. I went down this line of enquiry to see if I needed to know about it! Perhaps you are right and production will supply a special version for the composer - but I'd like to know if this is the case as I like to have a basic grasp of the overall production process. I'd love to know of anyone who has had to work in this frame rate and how typical it is becoming (if at all).

  • After Effects export as Premiere Pro project weird PAL/NTSC problem

    This post is not a question. It's here, because I've found a solution and want to share with You.
    I've noticed a strange problem during export from AE to PR.
    Ok, here I go.
    AE = After Effects CS3
    PR = Premiere Pro CS3
    My AE project is D1/DV PAL Widescreen. It is a sequence of slideshow with some video effects applied. I needed that sequence in PR. I was happy to find a new feature - export as premiere pro project (new for me - i am pretty rookie ;). Thaks to this feature I have saved most of my disk space that is always to low. But, like every first try, this one was not perfect too. I had two problems.
    Problem no 1.
    I opened exported project in PR and saw message like "video effect AE.CC COMPOSITE not present".
    Whole composition was working perfectly except that one video effect that was fundamental for this project.
    *Solution was as easy as it can be. I've just copied that effect from AE plugin folder to PR plugin folder. It worked for this.
    Problem no 2
    Like says AE Help "When you export an After Effects project as an Adobe Premiere Pro project, Adobe Premiere Pro uses the settings from the first composition in the After Effects project for all subsequent sequences."
    Project settings in PR was exactly D1/DV PAL Widescreen. So where is the problem You ask?
    Therefore why my Timeline works in NTSC 29,97 frame rate if all settings match PAL 25 frame rate?! I don't know.
    *Solution to fix this annoying bug is to create a new project in PR with all settings for D1/DV PAL Widescreen in this case. Than just import that PR project exported from AE. Now timeline works like it should in PAL frame rate.
    That's it.
    I hope this post is helpful, because I didn't find any answer for this here in Adobe forum.

    Who's says that Microsoft can't debug?
    I used msconfig, first disabling startup items, -same result.
    Enabled all startup items, disabled all non-microsoft services - AE worked!
    I re-enabled each service in turn until AE crashed.
    The fault was related to an item for a video streaming device I have in my house.  It was Monsoon-multimedia's Vulkano Service.  Sometimes under the old name of Hava, this is an app that acts like a sling-box to send my Cable TV to my screen.  It does load a couple of virtual devices in device manager, and uses a proprietary codec.
    I uninstalled the vulkano streamer application and rebooted the external Vulkano device.  I reinstalled the Vulkano and verified it connected to the device and could stream.  Once it did, I tried AE again and IT WORKED!
    I wonder if simply rebooting the Vulkano would have fixed it.  Its like opening the garage door to turn on the refridgerator.
    Thanks for the help!

  • PAL & NTSC headaches

    Hello, I always edit in PAL (I'm from Australia, so it seems like a good idea) I have been working on a project with video files provided on an external hard drive. It was going well till I exported the files to discover that many shots were out of sync and just generally looking very different from the edit I created. I discovered that the video files I had were in NTSC, and I have assumed that was the problem, as the sequences are in PAL and the audio tracks are also in PAL.
    I have put a lot of work into these sequences and need to know how to get everything thinking in the same format without loosing the past few weeks work. Final format is irrelevant as the files get converted to .wmv for internet delivery. Thanks in advance, I do believe I am loosing hair at this point.

    Not being that familiar with PAL and assuming the NTSC frame rate of the files in question is 29.97
    I would create an NTSC timeline appropriate to the footage codec and paste the footage in. It would be worth trying.
    When you say PAL audio tracks, are these tracks recorded on a PAL camera or are you talking about the tracks in the sequence?
    I would think the difference in frame rate would make sync difficult if the audio tracks are sourced at 25 against a 29.97 timeline, If they are the corresponding audio tracks to the NTSC video it will not be a problem

  • PAL - NTSC Conversion question

    I have some PAL DV footage at 25fps which I need to convert to NTSC to match some existing NTSC footage. The NTSC originated footage, when played in Quicktime diisplays the following info:
    FPS: 23.98
    Playing FPS: 24
    I need to convert the PAL footage to match the NTSC frame rates, annd also I'd like to converted footage to appear that it is NTSC roriginated (i'e, with the slower framerate as opposed to 25fps).
    I've made a few tests using the Frame Controls "Set Duration" options in compressor, but the results always seem end up at the wrong frame rates. Which setting should use? And can somebody explain what all the settings mean?

    Marc,
    I dont have extensive knowledge in this area although am literally doing the same conversion (PAL to NTSC) on my mac as I type this.
    I also recently read in Videography magazine about a project that was assembled from archived footage and all of the footage used originated from different formats and that was the hardest part about editing.
    They mentioned all the different ways they attempted to convert the footage but in the end it seemed as if they just settled for what looked best because they couldnt get an exact conversion.
    If your looking for a better way I would contact a transfer house to see what they may be capable of doing. Another thing worthy of pointing out that reading how they did the conversion they never mentioned using compressor so there are probably better systems at converting the files.
    hopefully this helps.

  • Frame Rate help

    I have a project that requires me to intercut video footage of a presentation with a Keynote deck. The video of the presentation was shot with a single camera (not by me) at 1920x1080 at 23.98 FPS. You can't see the Keynote slides on the projection screen behind the speaker, hence the need to intercut slides into the video.
    I want to use FCP's multiclip to edit the Keynote slides (exported as a mov) and presentation video together.
    I have the original Keynote file, but I can't seem to make the Keynote app export at 23.98 FPS. If I export it at 24 FPS, and try to make a multiclip, FCP throws an error about frame rates not matching (because the video footage is 23.98 FPS).
    So, if I can't get Keynote to play nice, do I need to convert the presentation footage from 23.98 FPS to 24 FPS? If so, what's the best way to do it?
    Thanks!

    although cinema tools may seem daunting, using the conform option is very simple.  First, I would duplicate your file (for safety sake as cinematools actually changes the frame rate of the original file).  Then open your file in cinematools.   File:  open clip.  A window opens and at the bottom about two-thirds to the right is a button "conform."  Click that and a window opens called Conform Clip.  Simply choose the desired frame rate and click the conform button.    That's it.    CinemaTools is (if I understand correctly) simply changing the metadata for the file so instead of playing back at your original frame rate, it plays back at the new frame rate.  If you conform from 24fps to 23.98 you will actually be slowing down your clip slightly.  But each frame is still a discrete frame and no interpolation, creation or deleting of frames happens.

  • 2 questions - one about Frame Rates, the other about Rendering

    These are two areas I need to learn more about.
    Any answers to my 2 specific questions below would be appreciated, but also, I need to gain a deeper understanding of these 2 areas, so if you have any recommendations on how/where to learn more, I'd appreciate that, as well.
    1. I'm trying to copy a tape from an older 8mm Sony Handycam to my Canon XL-1 mini-DV, in order to be able to import the footage into FCP, however, it comes out all messed up, skipping and jumping in a way that makes me think the frame rate of the two cameras is not in sync. I don't know of a way to change, or even to confirm, the frame rate of either one of these cameras and have found nothing online. Yet, I was able to successfully copy a tape a few years ago, with the same equipment I'm using now, so I'm thinking maybe the frame rate was changed on one of these??? I don't know.
    2. I've never really understood rendering - why some clips require it while others do not. The latest example was with footage from my Canon and a different (newer) Sony DCR-SR68. Because the format of this Sony is wider than that of the Canon, I shot it knowing that I'd be cropping off some of the left and right of the frame. So, in FCP, when I click and drag the corner of the wireframe in the canvas to make the Sony footage fill the square, it needs to be rendered in the Timeline. However, if I do the same with the Canon footage, it does not require rendering. I'm trying to understand why. If it makes a difference, the Canon footage was imported directly from the camera, whereas the Sony footage needed to be first imported into iMovie and saved as an MPEG before being imported into FCP.
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi Mr. Chappell,
    Many older tapes have sat on shelves etc. for many years, It is
    a good idea to,
    First make sure your 8mm is mechanically sound, throw in a blank or
    unimportant tape and make sure it will play etc. without causing any
    phisical damage to the tape.
    Then put in a tape to transfer and Fast forward to the end and then rewind
    to the begginning, this will re-pack/tension the tape.
    then play the tape back briefly while looking thru the viewfinder or monitoring
    with a tv, hopefully all looks well.
    then connect and transfer to the mini-dv (best to use a tbc, but should work
    without)then playback the DV tape briefly, again, with either viewfinder or TV,
    if all looks good you should have no problems unless they are related
    to capture settings (they should match the DV cameras video and audio sampling
    rate, check for 32K).
    Hope this helps,

  • IDVD rendering, frame rate and pixellation

    I have a number of MPEG-4 movies which I handbraked from DVDs. As standalone files, these play in Quicktime player fluidly and clearly at real time - all looking fine. I've imported them into iMovie to edit bits of each which I didn't want: the iMovie preview still plays these looking good. Add transitions and chapters and save project.
    I then make an iDVD project, drag the iMovie file (the one with the star) into it and it works fine, automatically displaying the correct chapters and in preview, it still looks fine. I leave it overnight to Burn DVD (which renders each movie file etc)., and the the DVD plays in my DVD player machine BUT each file is more pixellated than the original PLUS it seems to have dropped the number of frames per second. This means that although the audio and video are in synch and realtime, it looks slowed down.
    My iDVD settings are for Best Performance. The project is 6GB and I used a double layer 8.5GB disc. Also set to PAL which is correct for the UK.
    I have tried many methods to make this disc. Why are these movies compressed again? There doesn't seem a need to compress them. Why is the frame rate not maintained when there is plenty of room on disc to avoid compression?
    All I want to do is make a viewable DVD of a collection of movies without this quality fall-off!
    Is it just a simple matter of saving as disc image and burning at a slower rate (how do you do that anyway?). If so, what's the point of this software?
    17 PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.2)  
    17 PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.2)  

    DVDs are heavily compressed MPEG-2 files.
    If you rip a DVD using Handbrake, it will expand the MPEG-2 file into an uncompressed video file, then compress it on the fly to MPEG-4. Also, it will either retain the original 24 or 25 or 29.97 FPS frame rate, or will transcode to 25 FPS (PAL).
    If you then import the MPEG-4 file into iDVD, it will take the MPEG-4 clip, uncompress it, then squeeze it back to MPEG-2, and because iDVD is intended for encoding DVDs of (especially) DV-25 material, it will transcode the frame rate to 25 FPS (PAL).
    What you have done there is to take a file compressed with a lossy compression scheme, recompress it with an even lossier compression scheme, then recompress it a third time to the original compression scheme (but probably a different bit rate).
    In digital video, compression artifacts (noise, blockiness, etc.) become visible with the initial compression stage. Even DV-25, which is compressed 5:1 with an adaptive sampling method, uses a 1-frame GOP (all I-frames) and is optimized for editing and post-processing, will show artifacts, especially "mosquito noise". Artifacting is worse in MPEG-2 and MPEG-4, especially as the GOP length gets longer, caused by prediction errors in trying to re-create data that isn't really there. If you take this compressed MPEG-2 image, re create it, then compress it again, you will add new artifacting to the already trashy looking picture. Very quickly your picture will degrade into something significantly worse than VHS as you add compression stages. By the time you do that third compression, going MPEG-2 to MPEG-4 and back to MPEG-2, you're lucky if you have a recognizable picture at all.
    If you are hacking up a DVD and you want to maintain quality, then iDVD is not the proper tool to use. Ideally you should limit yourself to editing on the GOP borders (if you're lucky, every scene starts with an I-frame...) so that you can snag a chunk of the original MPEG-2 stream and drop it unaltered into your new project. You could then burn the un-re-re-recompressed DVD compliant MPEG-2 stream back to the disc with something like Toast or Sizzle.

  • Low frame rate even with high bit rate

    I am using a Logitech QuickCam Pro for Notebooks (the model that supports UVC per Logitech's website) with a new Mac Pro and iChat. Whether I do a video iChat over the internet or one within my internal network, the fps per the connection doctor of my camera is about 6 fps, even if the bit rate is over 2000 (which is what is was when I did the internal network chat). I can't find any setting where I can increase the fps rate, I can only increase the bit rate in the camera preferences in iChat.
    The camera is capable of up to 30 fps and when I do a video recording with it in QuickTime Pro and play it back, QuickTime Pro shows the frame rate as 30. So the camera is connected properly and is working properly. Any ideas on how to get the fps up to 15 in iChat (which seems to be the maximum, per the MacBook Pro I used for my internet network test above)? Thank you.

    Thanks for the reply, Tony. Changing the bit rate limit to 500 did not cause the frame rate to change. On my test with my internal network if I had the limit set to none then bit rate was over 2000 but frame rate was only 5-6. When I limited the bit rate to 500 it dropped while the frame rate remained unchanged a 5-6 fps.
    When I was doing an internet chat I also changed the bit rate limit to be none, 500, or 1Mbps to see what would happen and the connection doctor showed my frame rate staying at 5-6 and my bit rate staying below 100 (so changing the maximum bit rate setting made no difference). Meanwhile, the person I was chatting with had a frame rate of 15 and a bit rate of about 250.
    I'm on a cable modem just like the person I was doing the internet chat with, so I guess the problem is something to do with iChat and my Logitech web cam, not my internet connection.

  • Could anyone help me out here regarding frame rate?

    Hi, everyone,I need help with a dynamic frame rate issue,
    I have created this spinning diamond flash with a dynamic frame rate controlled by the mouse cursor.
    it spins from the right to the left if the cursor is at the left side of the diamond and vice verse, and also the further away the cursor is from the middle of the diamond, the faster it spins.
    it works perfectly awesome in Firefox and by itself, but when it's in IE, the cursor loses control of frame rate, so it spins at the highest frame rate regardless where the cursor is at.
    I used nextFrame(), prevFrame() to do the winding and rewinding job, and frame rate gets changed in ENTER_FRAME.
    I've heard some say that IE ignores frame rate per frame? is it true? if so, how do I fix it?
    Could anyone please help me out with this issue?it only happens in IE.

    please don't cross-post.  let's keep this discussion on the general flash forum.

  • When editing 1080p video in photoshop the frame rate is significantly dropping, I do have mac book pro 2.8Ghz 16GB Ram. Any reason why?

    I am trying to edit video from my DSLR and when the footage is downloaded, just converting it to smart object causes dropping frame rate; not saying with couple of adjustment layers. I bought the highest spec mac book pro laptop and was told it should cope perfectly. Any advise?
