There's also a Preference that might have to be set to display interlaced material, but it really slows down the system. That might only be a display thing, but could be part of the problem… been a while since I've used interlaced. Is Drop Frame still a thing? :-)

That option has to be selected before you bring in any media to the project IIRC. Now I had issues when trying to test round tripping when that control made everything baked back out drop frame regardless of it's original time code base, so non drop clips became drop frame clips with baked back out. The solution back on Resolve 9 was to check the "Allow Mixed Frame Rates" box. It was unintuitive but that allowed for a mixture of drop and non drop code on the baked out clips. On Resolve 9 the default for that was off. On Resolve 10 and I assume beyond that version the default was on. To me it was an improper name for the function but that resolved the time code changing format on bake out issue I was having at the time.

With the check box for mixed frame rates checked I don't know what impact the use drop frame check box has. I do remember I had to set that before importing anything into the Resolve project on Ver. 9

As the subject indicates, this is a Resolve question. I'm hoping someone here can help. I've figured out how to create a project that is 59.94i. In the Project Settings under Timeline Format I can see a option for "Use drop frame timecode". But it is greyed out. How do I make it enabled?

Thanks,
