DVCProHD capture 24p VariCam
by Robert Ikenberry on May 2, 2008 at 5:37:10 pm

Sorry for the newbie question, but essentially all my work in FCP with DVCPRO HD has been with P2 files. I'm capturing DVCPRO HD from Varicam tapes, shot at 24p (23.98 actually, i think). Most of the time the extra (duplicate) frames are not stripped at capture, even though the box is checked. Not starting capture until after the bars and tone at the head of the tape helps (I think thats hardwired at 60p & gets the capture confused) but even that doesn't always ensure that the footage is saved as 24p.

Since I had to return the deck, I now have several files of 60p footage (24p with duplicate frames) and a few files of 24p footage. I want to work with a 24p timeline and end up with a 24p show. What's the easiest workflow to bring my footage into the timeline at 24p?
