Premiere Pro 1.5 - 23.976 FPS Timebase Option

Postby SrgtWilco » Mon Aug 20, 2007 10:54 pm

Okay, so I've read through the guides and come across the big warning section on trying to edit 23.976 FPS clips. Now, it mentions that Premiere has a 23.98 FPS Timebase setting, that shouldn't be used. But I'm seeing a setting specifically for 23.976 FPS on the list, and the clips themselves seem to import and export fine. The only problem is, as the exported video progresses, it becomes more and more out-of-synch with the original audio. Is there anything else I need to know about this setting (before I waste a few months editing an inevitably flawed vid)?

One way you can do it is:

- Export your audio and video sources separately (using Export -> Audio... then Export -> Movie (or MPEG));

- After it's done exporting, load the video into VirtualDubMod (either using an AVISynth script or directly) and then load in the separate audio stream into VDubMod (using Streams -> Stream List, then "Add");

- Finally, use the Video -> Frame Rate... menu option and check the first three options:

> If the first option says 23.976, then you can export to AVI ... it should come out properly synched;
> If the first option says anything but 23.976, then look at the third option and see if that says 23.976 fps. If it does, use it;
> If the first option says anything but 23.976 and the third options says something other than 23.976, then click the second option and fill in "23.976".

After all that, go ahead and do an export to see if it works for you. That should at least get you a workable AVI version of your video properly synched up. :)

Sounds good. I'll give it a shot.
