frames mess up when rendering in app 2.0

I use pal avi in premiere pro and every time I render out something, when I put the rendered files into the timeline, they are blended and I lose about one frame per second.

Did you set up your project to run at 25fps before you started it?

23,976
just the same as the footage fps. But now that I imported it into AE, the frames weren't blended. There must be some import setting or something I haven't fixed. Know what that could be?

Well, that is likely what the problem is abour. PAL runs at 25fps. If your project is set up at 23,976 (which is the NTSC film framerate), Premiere will automatically blend (or skip) frames to achieve that new framerate. If your PAL footage already runs at 23,976, then the blending happened at some point before, for the same reason.

And I forgot to mention that I don't know why there is no problem in AE (which I have yet to use). Maybe it automatically detects the correct framerate and reapplies it?

yeah. It does that, but in APP you can read the framerate of the clips in the project file , and the info is correct. Maybe APP is lying =/

ah btw, isn't NTSC 29 fps or something?

Yes, it's 29.97. But NTSC FILM (progressive) is 23.976. From that, you get 29.97 by interlacing, for example through 3:2 pulldown.

ooh. which settings should I use for my adobe project then? I am really not steady on the technical stuff.

PAL should always be 25fps. The footage being interlaced or not makes no difference. But you say your footage is 23.976, so I don't really know what's up with that.

Unless you *think* it's PAL while it isn't (that's also a possibility).

A bit of reading would probably help you.

Good luck!
