Imprinting 24p, 30p and 23.97

[Chamber005]

From my understanding if you have 30p and 24p both being applied to the same DVD or Bluray, they cannot exist within the same chapter. So, for instance, if you wanted to cut between a 24p video and a 30p video each cut would constitute a new chapter?

I was also wondering about cutting not only 30p and 24p, but also throwing "true" 24p (23.97) into the mix. So, say, a 60i cam that's converting to 24p in conjunction with a professional cam that shoots actual 23.97.

Anyone have any experience on having these different frame rates printed to the same DVD/Bluray?

Thanks!!!

Dude... transcode your footage so it all matches. Seriously.

And TRUE 24p is 24.000 not 23.97. 24p inside a 60i stream is just normal video 24p with pulldown. Lots of cameras do it.

Sounds like you want everything at 24p so transcode to that and be done with it.

Well what would be best is if I could intercut 30p with 24p. I'd prefer my 16mm footage to be at 24p and my HD footage to be at 30p, but it doesn't sound like it's possible.

On a related note, does anyone know the frame rates of YouTube, Vimeo and ExposureRoom? It appears that YT is 30fps, Vimeo is 24fps and ER is whatever you download the footage as.

Clarification (if anyone knows it) would be great. The thing I'm shooting is going to be launched on the web and then printed onto DVD (hence my frame rate issue).

I would convert whichever footage you have the least of, to the framerate of the footage you have the most of, and work on a timeline with one framerate.

60i is really just another way of saying 29.97 interlaced, and 99% of the time it is actually 59.97i.

If 24.000 fps film footage has been transfered to video, it has most likely already been conformed to 23.98, depending on the video format.

For an NTSC DVD, you must be at 23.98 or 29.97 for it to play.

Yeah...I think I'm just going to have to go with 24 fps (23.98) even though I like the look of 30p a bit better from my HF200. But since it's being intercut with 16mm footage, I'd be remiss to force the 16mm to be at 30 fps.

Thanks!
