Question

How do you set the frame rate for a frame animation?

I'm trying to export me frame animation at 24 fps, however, whenever I export it (regardless of what file type or frame rate I set it to) it automatically makes it 30 fps. How do I fix this?

    I am not sure animated GIFs can be that accurate, but 1/24 = 0.041667.  I was able to input that timing and it was accepted, but I am not sure how you could test the result.

    If you need it to be accurate, then you probably need to convert the frame animation to a video timeline, and use one of the 24fps presets in the Media Encoder

    Thanks for the response. I tried both methods, and my animation still only exports at 30 frames per second. Do you have any other ideas?

    If you convert to a video timeline, and render out at 24fps, it _has_ to render to a 24fps.

    Can you clarify whether you are still trying to save as a frame animation or video?   I'm thinking that if you need it to be 24fps then you using it with a video, so you would have to convert it.  If you need to keep it as a frame animation, I am not sure that you can be sure of very accurate timing.


    Sorry for the confusion. I have a 960 frame animation that I want to render out at 24 fps to make a 40 second video. When I convert to video format, it makes it a 32 second video. This doesn't change when I change the framerate to 24. It also doesn't change when I render the video in a video format and set it at 24 frames per second.
