Maintain Source Frame Format at DVinfo.net

Harry Simpson · January 21st, 2011, 10:08 AM

I'm using HDLink and I select a 1920x1080p 29.97fps .MOV produced by my Canon 5D Mk2 camera.

But:

I'm using the Movie Studio 10HD and I select "Match Media settings" and select a Cineform HDLink converted AVI file. Then in Movie Studio 10HD I select new project and choose the bottom Video type "Match media settings" and select the converted AVI file.

When I open up the resultant project properties it selects the HD 1080-60i (1920x1080, 29.970fps) template. Souldn't have selected the HD 1080-30p (1920x1080, 29.970fps) template?

Can't figure out if Cineform or VMS is doing this but I need to find out.

Appreciate any explanation!

AVI headers don't indicate 30p vs 60i, so you have to override this in you editing software.

Thanks David,

So Movie Studio is guessing the AVI is 60i?

Yes, as 60i is more common than 30p.
