  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

We're doing dailies and final conform & color for a project shot 90% at 23.98 but one shoot day the crew accidentally shot 24fps. Intended workflow is:
-720 23.98 ProRes proxies with Clipfinder
-Cut in Final Cut
-XML conform back to R3D media for final color with also using Clipfinder
-Final Grad & Render
-Output to HDCAM-SR 422 for broadcast @ 1080 23.98psf

Anyone know of a way to convert the problem 24 fps R3D files to 23.98 so that the proxies generated from this footage match the rest of the media and we avoid conform issues down the road? I looked at RedCine, RedRushes & Clipfinder and seems there are a lot of handles for the type of proxy you want to generate but nothing that can alter the native framerate of the original R3D file.

I am aware that I can change the Proxy frame rate for the 24 fps footage from 24 to 23.93 using Cinematools but I think that will cause issues when I try to conform back the 24 fps R3D native the end.

What I'm looking for is a way to convert the framerate of the 3RD metadata so that when it opens in Clipfinder it's seen as 23.98.

Ideas?
