Is this a bug?: copied movie clip has wrong frame rate and ruins the main movie's sync

Hello,
I am trying to copy a movieclip with a frame rate of 30 frames per second to a movie that has a frame rate of 30 frames per second. Both movies are actionscript 3 movies. When I do this, my copied movie clip's frame rate reverts to 12 frames per second and all my audio synched animation is trashed. Then when I change it back manually to 30 frames per second it makes my main movie's stage animation go crazy at full possible speed and the audio is all out of sync. I have not set export for sharing or action script on this movie clip. I've tried other movie clips that are 30 frames per second and it is all crazy!
Is this a bug? What can I do? I've got 100s of movie clips I need to make. I can't keep remaking them just because flash has a screw loose. I'll go crazy!

Oh sorry I goofed! My main time line is 12 fps! I can't belive I didn't see this before.

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.

FCP interprting the wrong frame rate

Hi
My client has delivered some footage using the DVCpro codac (not HD)
Quicktime reads the file correctly as 25fps but when I import the file into FCP, FCP shows it at 32fcp. Although the duration is correct it just shows black when it runs out of frames until it reaches the end.(too short)
I have tried to export a DV version using Qicktime but again FCP still reads it as 32 fps
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

QT and FCP, it seems, get their meta data info from different places. What I would do, and try this from both Quicktime Player and FCP, is export the clip and save it out at the same codec but specify that the frame rate should be 25. This may help clean the clip up without destroying the original.

Import of clips at wrong frame rate

Never had this before. In a previous project with no problems. I open the project and many of my mp4 outputs from AE imported at 5fps. Tried to interpret the footage to 30 and it just shortened the clip length to zero. Eventually I had to reexport and replace the clips. Odd.

Maybe not so odd with that format. MP4 is a very poor choice an an intermediary. DNxHD MXXF files, or UT AVI files are far superior.
Ut Video Codec Suite 14.2

FCP getting wrong frame rate

I have clips that I'm converting to ProRes with Quicktime. They originate as H.264 files at 29.97 fps. Once converted they play fine in QT player which reports 29.97 fps, as does MediaInfo, but when I bring them into FCP it thinks they are 10 fps. What's going on!

Why? Because AVCHD is so cumbersome to deal with. Since the video is in H.264, "un-wrapping" it merely takes it out of the AVCHD file (converting the audio if necessary) and puts it in a format that can be dealt with at a file level rather than having to keep the BDVM structure. They can also be viewed natively on the Mac and cataloged in CatDV. Since no video conversion is taking place, the process is extremely quick, there is no generational loss, and the files do not balloon to unmanageable sizes. The original AVCHD packages are then archived to disc and I can keep un-wrapped versions near line to convert as needed. It is a much more elegant solution than having to go back to log and transfer every time you want to pull a clip out of AVCHD. The only rub is FCP thinking the clip is 10 fps when EVERY other video app sees it as 29.97!
As for the other questions, nobody TOLD me to do it that way, and while H.264 is often reffered to as a delivery codec, it this case it is the capture codec. And yes I have read the manual on log and transfer. As for what constitutes "proper", that is a matter of opinion to be discussed over a cup of tea. Right now I'm looking for a solution to a problem particular to FCP not a treatise on workflow.

Wrong frame rate, syncing in PT, what is going to happen when back in FCX

In a short movie I recorded audio on my recorder at 24 bits and 48 khz, video was shot at 29.97 with 2 dslr's and for some reason has been edited in a 25i project.
( a permanent orange bar remained on the timeline)
I asked them to bring me the whole library, since i didn't notice this issue I exported a video for protools of course at 25 and worked on it in protools, I synced all audio dialogue and effects, bounced a stereo audio master and reimported it in FCX in time line.
I was wondering if I am going to expect any trouble about all this.

Wrong capture frame rate

Hi,
I'm trying to conform a movie from recapture, and I'm with troubles.
I'm capturing from HDCAM 1080i 59.94 and after capture my material should be 29.97fps. But always is different.
Sometimes is 29.95 or 28.54 well... severals differents values.
I see the speed of image is OK, I haven't drops.
But when go to conform the timecodes doesn't match.
FCP shows correct frame rate on Bin, but QT shows these variables frame rates.
Anothers programs as Autodesk Smoke and Assimilate Scratch recognize the wrong frame rate too.
I have a Mac Pro 12 core, using the latest Snow Leopard, FCP Studio 3 and QT.
For storage have a External SAS disk array with 32 TB wich has a sustainted througput of 700MB/s (fully tested and OK).
For capture I'm using a Aja Kona 3.
Actually I already saw this problem in anothers versions of FCP and anothers machines.. but I never get to fix it.
Please, someone already had this problem and fix it?
Thanks in advance.
Thiago Cabral

QT almost is always wrong. It plays what it can... and with Snow Leopard, QT X is just worse. The fact that Smoke and Scratch report the wrong frame rate is really puzzling. Try this...use the CONFORM option in Cinema Tools to conform the footage to 29.97. Might be just the thing needed to LOCK that frame rate still.

Can I control the Iris Pro graphics frame rate or other settings?

I'm having an issue with a game. The game runs fine, but the graphics processing makes the frame rate go up to 100 or more FPS depending on some of the graphics settings. The CPU temperature then quickly climbs to 200 degrees F. I consider this unsafe, and would like to limit the frame rate of the game. However, the in-game option to control the frame rate has no effect. After discussions with the technical support, they suggest I try to set graphics settings outside of the game. (To be fair, the Mac client for the game is in beta, so they've probably not worked out all the compatability issues yet.)
However, I can find no control panel for the Intel Iris Pro in OSX Mavericks. Is it possible to limit/throttle the graphics from OSX Mavericks, or from terminal commands? The display settings give me resolution, brightness and color, but nothing as advanced as frame rate.
System:
15-inch Retina, late 2013

Create a new sequence with the settings you want - File > New > Sequence.
Take one of your 25fps video files and edit (or drag) it to the timeline of that just created sequence. You should be prompted to match the sequence settings to the source clip. Say yes. You can now click on the clip sitting on the timeline that you used to set the sequence settings. This will select it and then you can delete it by using the backspace key.
You should now have an empty sequence with the settings you want.
Return to your original sequence with the wrong frame rate, and click anywhere on the timeline. Type Command + A to select all the clips on you timeline, and then Command + C to copy them.
Switch to your new (empty) sequence and click anywhere in it. Type Command + V to paste your clips. You should now have your edited clips on the a sequence with the settings you want.

Why is my footage jumpy? Is it the frame rate?

When I play my imported footage in Quicktime it is smooth and as it should be, but when I import it into iMovie it appears to be playing back at the wrong frame rate and looks jumpy and bad quality. I thought it might be just playing back at the wrong speed, but when I export the film as a Quicktime it continues to play it back at the wrong speed. Help please!

Hi,
You might get a better response if you post your question in one of the iPod forums. Go to the main page, select Digital Life, then iPod. I can't see from your tagline which iPod you have so you may have to find your way to the correct forum for your specific model of iPod.

What frame rate should you build your Flash file at?

Every second of video has 30 frames. But Flash animations can
be done at any frame rate, which raises a couple of important
questions:what frame rate should you work at, and second, if you
choose to work at a rate other than 30 frames per second (fps), how
do you convert to 30 fps? I deal with the question of frame rate
conversion below.
You can create a Flash movie at 30 fps. But if is going to be
played back on a computer, a 30 fps .swf file will generally
produce unacceptably high data rates, unless the image is very
small and simple, or the computer it is playing on is very fast. It
can also create a lot of extra animation work if you want to draw
in-betweens for all 30 frames. Fortunately, there is no need to
build your Flash movie at 30 fps, even if you are planning to
transfer it to video.
I usually build animation that needs to work on the web or
video at 12 fps. This gives us a good balance of lower data rates
and smoother animation. When creating cartoon style animation, it
also keeps our work consistent with the majority of broadcast
animation. While some high end cel animation is done at 24 frames
per second (the rate that film is projected at), much broadcast
animation is created at 12 fps. This is because it is drawn on
"2's." In other words, each image holds for 2 frames. Do the math
and it becomes clear why--half the amount of frames to draw each
second. While Disney and Dreamworks may have virtually unlimited
budgets to create their epic animations, most broadcast (and even
more so, Internet) productions are on very tight budgets. But even
the big studios do a lot of character animation on 2's. It looks
good that way, so why create twice the work?
If we are using flash to build a cartoon solely aimed at
broadcast or film, however, we build it at 24 fps. That way we can
animate on 2's for most of the character animation, but do animate
on 1's for segments or particular motions that require smoother
animation.
If we are using Flash to build graphics for broadcast use
only, and so won't be hand drawing in betweens, we usually build
the file at 30 fps. This will give us the smoothest motion, and
data rate won't be an issue for you. It is also possible to even
build it at 60 fps, and convert this to a 30 fps video with fields
In the end, you can decide to build it at any rate you want.
The lower the rate, the smaller the file size, data rate and number
of frames to animate, but the less smooth the animation.
Conversely, the higher the frame rate, the higher the file size,
data rate and number of frames to animate, but with smoother
animation.
now I use
FLASH VIDEO MX PRO
to covnert Video in multiple formats to FLV or SWF, I set the frame
size just as above, I always get soomth Flash
at the meantime, I have to set video rate when I use
FLV To Video Convert
Pro to play the video in my iPod, if you set the wrong frame
rate, your iPod and other devices may not support the frame rate

Usually video quality has nothing with frame rate, but when
you convert flash to iPhone or other devices, you should think of
which frame rate video can your device play. when I convert .swf to
iPhone with
SWF to Video
Converter, as you know, iPhone can only support frame rate from
2 to 15 or a little more, I always choose 15. In this scare, frame
rate is higher, the quality is better.

Clip frame rate wrong in imovie 11

Ever since I upgraded to imovie 11 all of my video clips show a 60 in a yellow frame - both in events and projects - with the message "indicates clip frame rate (60fps) is not a multiple of the current project (25 fps)". What does this mean? As I said shows in events and projects. To stop audio jumping I detached all audio from clip but how do I fix the clip frame rate? Assume this causes "jumpy replay" problems. How do I fix and where??? Please help. Could not find solutions anywhere.

I meant to say it only (if I may generalize here) makes a difference when you edit. Don't try to edit 30 fps material in a timeline meant for 25 fps. Very few applications can accomplish this with a good end result.
Are you speaking about this particular change of frame rates or any?
Having transfered Super 8 film that was shot at 18 fps, I have little choice but to change the rate. So far everything seems to be working out fine. For 24 fps iMovie does a pull-down of 1 1 2; for 30, 2 2 1. I'm a little confused as to whether I should use 24 or 30 fps. I'll be asking about this in a new thread.
The easiest way to change a projects framerate is to edit the project xml file.
Right click on your iMovie project file and choose "Show package contents..." (or something similar)
Edit the "Project" file (no extension) using the free Textwrangler editor or a plist capable editor.
Find the node "frameRate" and update to 30.
Really? That's a cool trick! But it sounds like it could easily mess things up. Have you tried this and with what scenarios?
or easier just create a new project

Help with sequence settings in final cut for project with 2 different frame rates.

I really need help with this one! I finished editing a wedding video and realized after exporting that it was filmed in two different frame rates. This has happened before but I converted the footage to match and fixed the problem. In this case, the footage is part 30fps and part 60fps. The majority of it was filmed in 30fps. I cannot convert the 60 to 30 without the slow motion effect which I do not need so I have to find a way to burn this to a DVD without it looking messed up! The video was shot with two Canon 7ds if that helps anything. The first sequence I set at 29.97 and exported as a quicktime movie and all the footage filmed in 60 looked perfect and the footage in 30 looked jittery. Then I tried the sequence at 59.97 and it switched. The footage filmed at 30 looked good and the 60 was cropped in. I am so confused! Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks for your help Michael! The frame rates are 29.97 1920 x 1080 and 59.94 1280 x 720. I did a control click on the clips in final cut and viewed the item properties/format to find this info. The Canon 7d is a DSLR but we use it for video. As for my workflow, the first thing I do is import the footage onto my computer and then drag the clips into mpeg streamclip. I choose apple prores 422 and uncheck the interlaced box. Once this is done I import the .mov files into final cut. The sequence automatically sets itself to whatever clip I drag in first so it originally set as 29.97. When I finished editing wedding video, I export it to a quicktime movie and choose whatever settings match the sequence, in this case apple prores 422 1920 x 1080 30p. Once that is done I use iDVD to burn the discs.
I knew something was wrong when I watched the quicktime movie and all the 30fps footage was jittery and most of the cross dissolves looked strange. That's when I figured out the footage was at two different frame rates. What I don't understand is why whatever the sequence is set at in final cut, the clips of the opposite frame rate look right but the clips set at the matching frame rate don't???

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.

How to render a video from image sequence with custom frame rate?

Dear all,
For a project i would like to create a video from 47 images with a custom frame rate. To achieve this i take the following steps in Photoshop CS6 extended:
1) File -> Open...
2) Select the first image and select " image sequence ". All images have the same size (1280 x 1261 px) and are numbered correctly.
3) Click open
4) Frame Rate: Custom 3 fps
5) File -> Export -> Render Video... -> Render
6) Play the video with VLC. The video shows a still image of the first image.
If i choose a frame rate of 10 fps, then there is no problem. VLC plays the video as expected.
Is there a other way to create a video from 47 images and choose a custom frame rate? Or what am i doing wrong?

Seen this SO thread?
