[Avid-L2] Re: OT: Canon 5D 24p firmware, WARNING

Thanks Bouke -

I will do a few more tests today with QTChange but if I recall, altering the "duration" in QTChamge was enough for Avid to think it was a frame for frame. Just a note that ignoreqtrate only seems to work with a V only clip.

Great little app by the way.
