Changing Frame Code Mode

The Frame Code Mode tool allows you to select the framerate and drop frame mode for your clip. You can convert the framerate and drop frame mode on the video and the audio clip. However, when you convert a clip's rate, it's playback speed can be affected (both video and audio).

Also, if you change the frame code mode of a clip, timewarps will automatically be applied to the audio or video tracks to maintain the audio and video sync.

To change the frame code mode of a clip:

1. Access the Change Timecode tool in one of the following ways:
   • From the Format menu, select Change TC/Rate, and then click Rate.

   
   

   • From the Format menu, select Change TC/Rate, then select Timecode and then click New TC Mode (or New Start & Mode).

   
   

   • In the Clip Library, click Tools, then from the Tools box, select Change TC, select Timecode, and then click New TC Mode (or New Start & Mode).

   
   

2. Select the desired framerate, drop frame mode, and start option. See The Change Frame Code Mode Tool.
3. Do one of the following:
   • Click a clip to which you want to apply the frame code mode value.
   • If you are using the Change TC tool, select the clip to which you want to apply the frame code mode, and then click Change.
