Please enable 'custom' frame rate option on export settings,
so that users who are editing for example source footage
coming from 8mm or 16mm based on frame rates like 16fps or 18fps,
can export them to such frame rates or other.

I am agree. I will change for Resolve if this function is not propose for 16 and 18 fps for 8mm and super 8 film. I can't propose to my customers a 8mm film with duplicate frames...

Carlos, Eric, Ryszard, Thomas : I added custom framerate export in AfterCodecs https://www.autokroma.com/AfterCodecs
More info here https://www.autokroma.com/blog/How-to-Export-Custom-Framerates-PPro-AME/

It is limited to 200 fps but I will increase this limitation in the next version so you can export 240 fps Eric; Would you have a 240fps file so I can test it ?

Thanks,
Antoine

In addition to preserving archival footage, the ability to export at a custom frame rate is extremely important for creating matching proxies. We receive a lot of footage that is shot at 120 fps and 240 fps specifically for slow motion and speed ramping effects. Premiere Pro used to have this capability and now it's not available.

Yes, please enable the ability to export at 18fps and 16fps. This is a really important function for those of us working with archival film footage. Better still, please enable the ability to export at whatever custom frame rate is used in a sequence.

I am also blocked to handle old 16 and 18 fps material. Would already be happy if 16 and 18 fps would be values in in the dropdown-list.
