by Tom Wolsky on Nov 20, 2006 at 10:23:45 am
in the Apple Final Cut Pro basics Forum
With that camera you're recording your material at 29.97 regardless of the whether it's 24p or 24pa. To call 24pa true 24 is a misnomer and a misunderstanding of what the format is doing. 24pa has one advantage. It lets ... | | | | |

all in 24pa, is there any way to intergrate my older 24p footage with the 24pa, on a 23.97 TC timeline. Rendering 24p into the 24pa timeline is awful, and cutting on a 29.97 timeline defeats the whole purpose for ... | | | | |

First of all iDVD doesn't support 24fps, only 29.97 and 25. Nor does iDVD accept native HDV material. HDV has to be in the Apple Intermediate Codec. You could export to that. Why don't you go to DVD Studio Pro ... | | | | |

Excellent. Just remember -- by default, AE interprets image sequences as 30 fps, so you might need to re-interpret it as 29.97 or whatever you want it to be. Then drag it onto the New Comp button. | | | | |
