[Avid-L2] Re: [FCP-L] Easy way to remove 2:2:2:4 pulldown?

 

Well, I don't know what this would do to your audio, but... Capture or export to a file sequence, like TIFF or DPX or something. Then figure out what the pattern is for the repeat frames, 0/5, 1/6, 2/7, etc. Then from the terminal go to that directory and delete all the files that end in the numbers that you want to get rid of. Then use something like Better Finder Rename to renumber the remaining frames to a sequential set and import that file sequence or make into a QT or whatever.
