Monitoring Dual Timecodes and 2:3 Pulldown

When you load 24p clips into the Player, the dual timecode and 2:3 pulldown monitoring options are enabled.

To monitor dual timecodes and 2:3 pulldown:

1. Load a 23.97 fps clip into the Player.

   The playback rate is set to 23.97 fps. A pulldown frame type display indicates the corresponding pulldown frame type for the clip following pulldown insertion.

   
   

   (a) Pulldown frame type display  

   The pulldown frame type display allows you to keep track of which transitions fall on jitter frames (video frames composed of two different film-based frames). 23.97 fps timecode uses a plus sign for the last punctuation mark, while 29.97 fps timecode uses a colon in non-drop frame mode, or a semi-colon in drop frame mode.

   The pulldown frame type display also appears in the Basic menu for all clip nodes in Batch that use 23.97 fps timecode.

2. To view the 29.97 fps timecode that corresponds with each frame in the 23.97 fps clip following pulldown insertion, enable 30.

   
   

   NoteTimecode 00:00:00:00 on the timeline is always an A-frame, both when you work on the timeline and when you output the final project. This is the reference used to calculate 2:3 insertion when recording to tape.
3. To enable real-time 2:3 insertion while playing the 23.97 fps clip, in the Player Menu, enable 2:3 Insert.
