View Full Version : 16fps to 29.976

I've searched but only came up with methods for 18fps to 29.976, being:

AssumeFPS(18)
ComplementParity()
DoubleWeave()
SelectEvery(6, 0, 0, 2, 3, 4)
AssumeFPS(29.97)

Which works great on my Super 8 transfers but for regular 8mm (R8), that method does not give the feel it should for R8.

I'm sure it's a simple method of changing the numbers of SelectEvery() but when it comes to that, I have no clue.

Any help is very much appreciated.

A simple script of:

changefps(59.94)
separatefields
selectevery(4,1,2)
weave()

will do just what you want.

Alternatively, see this thread:

I finally got a script to handle the mix of 16fps and 18fps just fine. Thanks for the link....didn't think that thread would help me because it dealt with 18fps material.

But my source material for what you posted had to be 16FPS and not 29.976. Otherwise the speed change did not apply correctly.
