How To Remove Duplicate Frames from Uncompressed Capture?

Hi

We shot using an HVX200 and captured at 720p24 over the RGB output into a BlackMagic Intensity Pro card. (it won't capture 24 ....). The captured clips are Quicktime Movies (ie not DVCProHD).

Now I'd like to remove the duplicate frames of the 59.94 fps and process/key at 24fps in AE. The final composites will then be rendered at 24fps DVCPro HD for editing in FCP6.

I have already tried processing/Keying using the 59.94 captured clips, then exporting as DVCPro HD 59.94, hoping that FCP could remove the "Pulldown" . But it can't ... because it's not really pull Down I guess.

So does anyone know how to remove *duplicate* frames added in the HVX200, when the clip is not actually DVCPro HD.... ??

Thanks

Woops...

Figured it out.

If I make an AE Composition that is DVCPro HD 24fps, then it seems to automatically know which frames to drop! (I'd been working with an Uncompressed 59.94fps comp before, waiting to do the frame rate conversion at the end... dumb!)

But if you weren't going through AE, I'd still like to know how to handle this task!

Thanks
