Question

Nested Clip Changed Frame Rate

Hi,

So Im working with a bunch of 120 fps footage. I'm new to editing so I watched some tutorials on how to use warp stabilizer and time/speed settings, seemed like general protocol was to first use stabilizer, then Nest the footage, then apply speed changes. So basically I want to stabilize my footage if needed, then be able to play it back in slo mo.

However, I keep running into the issue that once I nest a clip, the frame rate is changed to 23.98 (found this by > right click on clip > properties), so I can't play it back in slo mo because the frame rate got crunched from 120 to 24. Ive tried doing > clip > modify > interpret footage, as a suggested answer on another forum, but the interpret footage option is grayed out/not available when I try this. I have also tried going into the nested sequence, and trying sequence > sequence settings, but there is no 120fps option. What am I doing wrong and what can I do to change it ? Any help appreciated

      When you nest a clip, it follows the frame rate of the original sequence.

      1- Double click on the nested sequence

      2- Go to sequence settings of the nested sequence.

      3- Change editing mode to "Custom" this will allow you to change the frame rate of the sequence.

        Hi, when you do so, how can you really set a custom frame rate? I can only choose from the drop down menu. But for example gopro 4/3 footage is 47.95 and I cannot choose/type that framerate. It does work when I create a sequence from the gopro clip, then it automatically sets the framerate of the sequence to 47.95. But this is a time consuming workaround...

        Not entirely true. You can choose whatever order works for you.

        You can do the slomo first, nest, then add the warp.
