All,

need help..

I have a downloaded a movie with a frame of 12.500 fps.

I have saved the audio as a wav file and am trying to change the framerate.

Now I know 23.976 fps corresponds to 960 for framerate conversion
25 fps to 1001 and 29.970 to 1200. This means 1fps = 40.04.

Therefore 12.5 fps should be 500,5.

However when I try to change the framerate with Besweet -->> -ota ( -r 500 1001) or -ota ( -r 501 1001) the audio is very fast.

What to do?

of course it gets very fast, you are doubling the framerate, so the audio will play twice as fast!

12,5fps is not a good starting point for any framerate conversion, you gotta keep it as is.

If you're encoding to MPEG, TMPG has a function to keep 12,5fps and to simulate 25fps.
At Frame rate click on "Setting" and set "25 / 2 = 12,5 fps" up.
It will show then "12,5 fps (internally 25 fps)"

If you are planning to make an NTSC Disc, accelerate your video & audio to 14,985fps and set "14,985fps (internally 29,97fps)".
The audio will be about 20% faster, but I think this isn't too bad.

[EDIT]
I'm not into BeSweet, but I don't think 25fps is 1001, it is exactly 1000, every frame has 40ms.
But as said I don't work with BeSweet, so I may be wrong about the right BeSweet setting (still a PAL frame has exactly 40ms :D)
