Subject: [L-TDM] 29.97d frame rate
Message #25103
This is going to sound like a newbie question and I'm slightly embarassed to ask. But--most of my work involving video is short form (commercials, promos, etc) Rarely over 60 seconds. The NTSC standard frame rate for video (non-HD) is 29.97. The quicktime movies I am synching to show "29.97" in the get info page. I always used 29.97 in Logic. Occasionaly I would notice that the video would be off by a frame or 2. But always thought it was just a quicktime thing or whoever digitized the video didn't do it right. But after working on this project that is 3 minutes long I notice that my frames are way off after 2 minutes or so. I look in the Logic Reference manual and it says 29.97d is the standard and 29.97 is extremly rare. Huh? So I should have been using 29.97d all this time? Why don't they make 29.97 the same as Quicktimes 29.97. ProTools doesn't have an option for 29.97d. Only 29.97. I thought that was the rate I was using in Logic. But I guess I was wrong. Can anyone confirm this??? Thanks
