Problem with FCP4

Darrell Hinton · September 14th, 2003, 12:15 AM

So if I am planning on only using my 24p adv. footage for DVD/Web Use/Film Conversion does that mean that I need to remove pulldown? Since pulldown is only for converting to 30fps (or is it?).

I think REMOVING the pulldown gets you down to 24p because it is stored in 29.97fps tape. You insert pulldown back in when its going back out to something that is 29.97fps like dv tape, or video something like that.

Thats as far as my knowledge goes I'm confused with all this.

Thanks, I understand what you are saying. Yes, all this technical stuff can get pretty confusing.
