It's 2 am and Im stuck at my edit suite trying to recapture some footage which was shot in HDV 1080i60i, I've captured all the tapes in DV NTSC and am now trying to Online the footage in UNCOMPRESSED 10 bit but apparently some of the footage I captured previously somehow is non drop frame, even from the same tape, it is crazy and a nightmare because I have already finished editing my sequences without having noticed this problem and now that I want to re capture FCP tells me that I am trying to capture drop frame footage to a non drop frame clip. I continued with the capture and my whole sequence has been messed up, things are not as they used to be, the clips have slipped frames and it doesn't look the same. What can I do Please help!!!!! Im going crazy.
Thanks
 
How did you capture the footage to begin with? Did you use Capture Now?

If you originally use Capture Now, and manually bring every clip in, FCP will have a hard time recapturing. This has always been a quirk with FCP. The only way I've ever been able to reapture footage without issue is if the footage was originally logged and then batch captured.
