Premiere elements 13 changing the frame rate of the original clips

Hi,
I'm trying to make a gameplay video for YouTube... The clips I'm using are at a low frame rate (13-15 fps). When I put these clips into the editor, they get sped up to 30 fps. This increases the speed of the video and the preview window jumps back and forwards in the video.
This is highly frustrating because I can not change the speed of my video, and I can't see what I'm editing... I've tried rendering the video but this makes no difference... Is there any way of getting around this problem???

Excellent! I'm pretty sure that will solve the problem. The files are in raw "movie clip" format. That usually causes problems. I can't beleive I didn't think of that before! I'll convert the files to mp4 or avi and post again to comfirm that that really was the problem.
Thanks for the quick response
--> Just to comfirm, changing the format to mp4 worked!
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!11

Would you like to change the frame rate of the project to 30 to match to m

I just now moved some film clips from the Event Library to the Project Library and a white message window appeared saying: *MISMATCHED FRAME RATES. The frame rate of t his cli is 30 and the frame rate of the project is 25. Would you like to change the frame rate of the project to 30 to match the clip? And two radio buttons: Don't Change and Change.
First of all, the other day I set my Sanyo VPC-HD2000A to shoot film at 1280 x 72 at 30 fps SHQ. Now I just checked and it is set at the topmost red zone960 x 540 at 30fps. The only thing I can think of to explain this is that I selected it but did not "set" it.
Thus now I have a message asking what I noted above. Should I click CHANGE?
WHY IS THE FRAME RATE OF THE PROJECT SET AT 25? How did I do that? What did I do that caused me to have a project that is set at 25 fps?????
Time for another snack. 8-(

A side issue is to find out why I set my Sanyo VPC-HD2000A at one rate (above) but now see that all the footage was shot at a different rate. Very very frustrating.

AppleMan,
It all began inside the settings of my Sanyo VPC-HD2000A when somehow the selection got switched from 1280 x 720 to that other setting with so-called 25fps. Also, I don't know whether the mishap occurred before or after I took my new footage.
I edited the clips last night and now they are on my blog and channel and they seem ok but slightly fuzzy.
I used a Sanyo VPC-HD2000A .7x wide angle lens with macro and I notice that when I zoomed in to the little sun conure, the picture blurred. I think that might be something that happens when one zooms the focus.
Also, I was born and raised to a teenager in Hawaii, but now Southern California has me in its grip.

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?

Is there a way to change the frame rate on an audio clip in the source monitor?

Premiere CC6. I am trying to sync audio and video by using "Merge Clips" but the audio seems to be counted in a 29.97 rate while the video is 23.98. The sound person on set swears the audio TC should match the smart slate and that the frame rate is 23.98. Any help or insights would be greatly appreciated.

I think I may have solved it, actually. I find that if I switch the timecode to NDF in the source viewer, it seems to work. I have tried it on three clips and they have sync'd without problems. Hopefully this will continue to be the case.

Change sequence frame rate when there are clips in it.

Hi,
I finished a three minute video (1444x1080, 29.97fps), then I had to do a slightly different version (first was for corporate clients, 2nd for regular clients). I opened a new sequence, then selected all of the clips in the first timeline, copied, then pasted them into the second timeline. As I started to make the changes I noticed that some of the clips had moved around and the lengths were slightly different. Since I had to make changes anyways, I didn't worry about it too much. Then, just as I finished, I realized the problem. The new sequence was 23.98fps. Ah!
I've already learned that you can't change the timebase of a sequence that has clips in it. I tried creating a third sequence (making sure the settings were correct) and then copying and pasting the clips from sequence 2. However, they go completely wonky in the new timeline. The various tracks don't line up and the in and out points of the clips have changed.
Is there a way to get my 24fps sequence into a 30fps sequence without having to fix or redo most of it.
Thanks.

Ha. Thanks. That's good to know. I won't waste my time trying.

How do I output the smoothest video when changing or mixing frame rates from the original footage?

I have been experimenting with various Media Encoder settings, and wondered if there was anything else I can try to get the smoothest video output possible, especially when changing frame rate and possibly resolution. For clarification, let me start from the beginning and explain what I'm doing and what I've tried so far. I'll try to be as brief as possible, but if I do go into too much detail, I apologize.
My original footage is AVCHD 1080p - 60fps. (my camera only does 60fps...specifically 59.94fps) We're not talking interlaced video here, I'm staying away from that. This is definitely full frame, progressive video at 60 frames (not fields) per second. My output will ultimately be for the web. I have been keeping my output codec (H.264) and bit-rate (VBR 2-pass, relatively high-bitrate) consistent, and have been trying numerous output options and even sequence settings to see what would yield the best results. I am using Premiere Pro CS5.5 along with Media Encoder. Here's what I've done and the results I've observed:
1. I created a sequence with 1080p - 59.94fps settings to match my original footage. I then output both 1080p and 720p versions at 59.94fps, and at 29.97fps. The 59.94fps output files looked absolutely great, as would be expected. Extremely smooth. The 29.97fps output files were generally smooth, but not near as smooth as the 59.94fps. This is expected since it's half the frame rate as my original footage. However, my question is this: What exactly is Media Encoder doing when "down converting" from 60p to 30p? From a technical stand point, is it dropping every other frame? I'm just curious to understand exactly what it does. I tried the Frame Blending option as well, and that only yielded a bit more blur to the images which wasn't desirable for any of the output files.
2. Just to see what would happen, I created a sequence with 1080p - 29.97 settings. I then output both 1080p and 720p versions at 29.97fps. The video was much more choppy in these cases, even with Frame Blending on. Now, I know not matching my sequence settings with my original media isn't ideal, but I again just want to understand why this yields less smooth video than the 29.97fps options above. Why does cutting the sequence settings frame rate in half from the original, then outputting the same frame rate as the sequence yield video that is not as smooth?
3. Next, I wanted to try mixing frame rates to see how Premiere and Media Encoder handled the footage and output files. Premiere handled it great, no issues there. However, I had some interesting things happen when I output the files. Here's what I did: I created a sequence with 1080p - 59.94fps to match my original footage. Then I took the same exact footage that was in my sequence, copied it in my project panel and interpreted it at both 23.976 and 29.97 fps, yielding slow motion video. The slow motion video looked great in Premiere, so I went ahead and just added it to my sequences, along with the original 59.94 footage. I also created separate sequences for the 29.97 and 23.976 footage respectively, each with matching sequence settings, then added a nested sequence to another original footage sequence (with 59.94fps sequence settings) to see which yielded the best results. Basically, I'm trying to output 59.94fps that match my original footage, but also throw in some slow motion footage at different framerates. I'll explain my results in a moment as they are a bit convoluted, however, here is my question: When mixing frame rates and trying to output the smoothest video, am I going about this the right way? I would assume you would use your sequence settings that match the original footage (which is what the majority of the footage will be), then bring in a nested sequence for the slow motion (as oppose to just dropping the slow motion video directly into my main sequence), and then output to the same frame rate of the majority of the footage, in this case 59.94fps. Is there a better workflow for this?
The results to #3 above were as follows. Initially, it looked like it didn't matter if I nested the slow motion sequence into my main sequence, or simply dropped the actual slow motion video into my original 59.94fps sequence. It seemed to produce smooth results either way. Frame Blending blurred the video a bit, but didn't seem to make much difference, and quite honestly I like the footage without Frame Blending in general. However, when I closed down Premiere, and opened the output files later (opening in Quicktime), the footage looked choppy. In fact, it would go from choppy to smooth and back, almost like it had an irregular cadence (don't know if I'm using "cadence" in the right context here). I would then open up Premiere again, import the output footage into my project panel, and play the footage in Premiere, and it would play back smooth again. Is this a Quicktime issue? I was playing 1080p 59.94fps files when this happened, so maybe it's just because it's a large file. Doesn't seem to have issues with the 720p files I created. But it sure threw me off with my testing because I then started second guessing the settings I was using. My iMac is the latest 2011 model with plenty of RAM, so I wouldn't think it's the computer. Thoughts?
4. Next, I noticed on ALL my output files (again, using the H.264 codec from Media Encoder) that the color of my video seemed to flatten quite a bit. It seems that the original footage has more contrast and saturation than the output files. I figured maybe this was just how it was, but when I re-imported the output files back into Premiere, they looked IDENTICAL to the original footage. And in Media Encoder's Source/Output windows, I don't see any difference there either. Is Quicktime again the culprit here, doing some odd things to the color of my videos?
5. Regarding Frame Blending, when is the best situation to enable this option in Media Encoder? I've read it is when mixing frame rates, but I honestly didn't see too much of a change except for a bit more blur, which I didn't care for.
6. Lastly, my conclusion is that 60fps yields the smoothest video, which is an obvious conclusion. However, I know that 60fps isn't the best or easiet frame rate for web delivery. It seems 30p is more the standard. Are there any integrated web players that would play 60fps? Can you get 60fps video on YouTube/Vimeo? If yes to any of these questions, can they do 720p and 1080p at 60fps?
Those are all my questions. I hope I am clear enough without being overly wordy and hopefully I didn't put too many questions into one post. Thanks in advance for any insight, I really appreciate it.

Did you ever figure out which output worked the best? I have the same original footage; trying to determine the best output settings to make a dvd for tv.
thanks!

How can I change the frame rate of a project in imovie 10?

My problem is: I made a gopro movie with a frame rate of 50 fps. I imported it to imovie. So far so good.
Scrubbing over the clip i found one single frame which looked amazing. So I draged some seconds of that clip into the timeline (the project if you will).
The goal was to make a freeze frame out of this "spezial" frame.
Unfortunately I could not find this frame in the timeline any more - it's gone.
I think imovie dropped half of the frames to fit the clip into the projekt, which I assume is using 24-25fps.
The only solution I found is to decrease the speed of the clip to let's say 50%.
But is there a better way?
Can I change the frame rate of the projekt somehow? I think it was possible in imovie 11.
many thanks
Rainer
(from austria)

iMovie 10 won't share at 50 fps and so for 25 fps output probably drops every other frame. This is different from Imovie 9 which could handle 50 fps. However, if you do 50% speed it will use all the available frames so that is indeed the way to find the frame you want. After you have made a freeze frame I think you can switch the clip back to normal speed. I am not aware of a better way in iMovie 10 By the way there is also no facility to export a still of a frame in iMovie.
As a GoPro user I think FCP 10.1 would be the best choice.

How do you change the frame rate (or fmp) of a project once you have already started?

I have been working on a project for a long time now, and I just reliezed that the frame rate of the project was 25 where as all my clips were in 30. Is there any possible way for me to change the frame rate even though I've already started the project? or do I have to start again?
thanks

Hi,
I've had a really good search through our documentation and website but there's no previous record of that error code. However, a quick google search turned up lots of things on MatLab user groups and the MathWorks forums.
MatWork's official stance is that the PCI 7342 is not supported in MatLab. They have a list of supported hardware here:

Is it possible to viw the frame rate (fps) on the finder?

I have always been interested to see what the frame rate of my iMac is, but I can't work out how. I've searched the built in help, I have tried to search through the previous discussions on the topic but all with very limited success. There has to be someone who knows out. I've seen it done on Windows but have no idea on OS X. Also if I am playing a game I want to be able to see the frame rate "over" the game (if you know what I mean). Thanks in advance.

The operating system really doesn't have a measureable frame rate other than the refresh of the monitor.
Displaying the framerate in games is determined by the game settings.

Dropping frames in render.. How do i change export frame rate

I have a film clip shot on the canon 5d which shoots only at 30fps. This was no issue in FCP as the preferences allow changing the frame rate.
The project plays fine in color, but when it comes time to render the settings are locked at 25fps. This results in sync issues once sent back to FCP.
Is there anyway to get around this? Is there a preference somewhere that allows me to change the frame rate in color?
Any help would be greatly appreciated

How can I change the frame rate mode?

Adobe Premiere Pro exports my videos with a variable frame rate. Because of this long videos are asynchronous. How can i change the frame rate mode? So Adobe Premie Pro exports my videos with a CONSTANT frame rate? The original video has a constant frame rate...

Sorry my mistakes. I am from Germany.. so...I mean with asynchronous that the video file and the sound file are displaced. In the beginning of the Video it's normal, but if the videos is very long it goes VERY "asynchronous"

I want to play video on my computer to make some analysis to frames,the problem that I face ,I can't change video frame rate using labview,but I can change frame rate to the video out of labview using some program

HI All
I want to play video on my computer to make some analysis to it's frames,the problem that I face ,I can't change video frame rate using labview,but I can change frame rate to the video out of labview using some program .
I used IMAQ AVI Read Frame VI
for example I have avi video It's frame rate is 25 fbs ,my image processing code is very fast that can process more 25 fbs,so I want to accelerate video acquisition

Hi abdelhady,
I looked into this further, and reading an AVI file into LabVIEW faster than its frames per second won't be possible. LabVIEW could read in frames faster than 25fps, but because it will be pulling the available frame at that point in time this would just give you duplicate frames. If you want to be able to read in frames at faster than 25fps, you would need to speed up your AVI file before reading into LabVIEW.
There's a good shipping example to show how to read in from an AVI file, "Read AVI File.vi". You'll notice that they add timing to make sure that the while loop runs at the right speed to match up with the frames per second of the file being read. This is to make sure you're not reading duplicate frames.
Thank you,

Is it possible to change the frame rate of a motion template?

Motion has some very useful templates, but the majority are only offered in NTSC, not PAL. (including all in 3D TEXT PROJECTS).
Is it possible to change the frame rate to 25fps before I start adding my own stuff, so that I can easily get the timing right for a PAL sequence in FCP.
If not in Motion, how else could this been changed?

Try dragging all the groups from one project into another instead - you'll need to open both project and rearrange the windows so you can see the layers tab for both of them.

Changing animation frame rate when rendering in photoshop does not change the length of the video?

I made a walk cycle animation in Photoshop CS6 and want to render it into a quicktime format. I'd like it to be 12 fps, but when I rendered it at 12 fps the video seemed to be missing frames, and the video was 3 seconds long. I have 98 frames to my animation; doing the math, at 12 fps it should be 8 seconds long. Not 3.
I was confused and for curiosity's sake I rendered the video at 6 fps, trying to really slow it down. The video ended up being STILL 3 seconds long and only maybe 20 frames. I was missing literally 70 frames. I'm so upset with this rendering thing, I could chuck my computer at the wall.
Does anybody know of a solution to this?
edit: If it means anything, I've tried rendering it straight from the frame view and the timeline view. Each time I render it I have the timeline frame rate match the rendering frame rate as well.

Changing animation frame rate when rendering in photoshop does not change the length of the video?
Photoshop CS6 and CC support two types of animation Frame animations and a Video Timeline
Changing the frame rate should not change the length of a video timeline. It should just change the number of frames that are rendered. To change the length of a video you need to change the length of the video timeline. If you increase the length of the timeline and there is audio I'm quite sure there will be a problem with it, The Video part will most likely be better then the sound. The required number of extra frames can be generated however the video may look like slow motion. If you decrease the length the motion will speed up. The length of a video is normally done be editing video clips which are trimmed and stitched together to get the desired duration. Not normally done by altering the duration of a clip.
The duration a of Frame animation is the sum of the times each frame is displayed. In a frame animation the length of time a frame is displayed can be varied it not a normal motion picture video. To have a smooth frame animation you need a sufficient number of frames that are different from each other to show smooth motion. You can use Photoshop Frame animation tween feature to have Photoshop manufacture frames to help with a smoothing the animation. Once you have a frame animation the length with the motion you want you can have Photoshop convert it to a video timeline and render a normal motion picture video. It will not have audio but you can add audio to it.

How do I set the frame rate to 12fps on my video, and it not change randomly?

Hi, I imported a video layer from file then set the frame rate to 12fps, when I play the video it keeps changing the frame rate to random times. How do I keep it at 12fps

Click the windows start button, then right click on computer, this will bring up a window that will tell you how much ram your system has.
Also Start>Accessories>System Tools>System Information will give you all the details you need to know.
As for Codec, That is an abreviation for code/decode it tells windows how to code when saving a video and how to decode when playing a video. Most formats are wrappers (avi, wmv, mov, rt) Each of these have a codec that you can choose from when saving a video, that codec then must be installed on the users computer to see that same video. Most formats come with a basic number of codecs and the creator of the video can purchase other codecs that provide better feature set.
What the codec really does is takes the video and compresses it like a zip file then the user when playing require that codec to uncompress it.
So each codec has its own strength and weaknesses. Some can compress more making a smaller file and perhaps inturn removes more data to get that compression and therefore has a poorer quailty video (just an example)
I am sure you heard of a few codecs if you think about it. mpg, mp2, mp3, mp4, h.264 and so on. Mp3 is the only one I listed here that is for audio only. Yep thats right even audio uses codecs.
