  • 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 :)

REDCINE to SCRATCH to Tape....

You do not want to create a Quicktime with 2:3 pulldown at 29.97 just to remove it again for a 23.976 SD project. The file stays stays native 23.976 as it is now when importing, it is just the metadata that needs to address it as though it did come from 29.97 and had the 2:3 pullldown removed. This is where MetaCheater comes in for creating the metadata before the import. It just needs to updated to reflect the relationships of 24 to 30. I will be finishing a whitepaper that has all of this in it soon, once I get all the information from the different workflows being attempted. Just a bit difficult when working with two beta test files and not having access to a camera.

The basic mapping is as follows:

24 30 pulldown
:00 :00 A
:01 :01 B
:02 :03 C
:03 :04 D
:04 :05 A
:05 :06 B
:06 :08 C
:07 :09 D
:08 :10 A
:09 :11 B
:10 :13 C
:11 :14 D
:12 :15 A
:13 :16 B
:14 :18 C
:15 :19 D
:16 :20 A
:17 :21 B
:18 :23 C
:19 :24 D
:20 :25 A
:21 :26 B
:22 :28 C
:23 :29 D
