All assetts imported into DVDSP must conform to the project standard of either PAL or NTSC.
You can approach this in two ways:
- Go to [www.nattress.com] and use the FCP plug-in to convert your PAL video to NTSC.
- Use Cimema Tools to retime the 25fps PAL to 23.98 fps, and then use Compressor to reformat the PAL video to NTSC 23.98fps. You can try just using Compressor, but I have had better results with retiming before using Compressor.
I have used both, each with their pros and cons, but generally give similar results.
If you have Final Cut Studio, then you have Cimema Tools and Compressor, so give that a shot first. If that does not work for you, download the Nattress Standards Conversion Trial.
Hope this helps, and good luck.
