[Avid-L2] Re: 2997 to 2398

Ready for fun???

You can open your 29.97 sequence in a 23.98 project and Avid converts everything. But....

It keeps the sources as 29.97 with the motion effect applied to make them 23.98.

So, you now have two possible workarounds.

1: is to use a combination of the Avid conversion method and EDL. In other words, do the EDL method and cut it over your converted sequence on a higher track. Then you can lift effects from the converted sequence up to the EDL created shots. When done, decompose and capture.

2: And I haven't tried this yet but it should work. Transcode your converted 23.98 timeline to changing the frame rate to 23.98. Delete all that media, decompose and capture.
