Conform media framerate to project literally.

Hi! I seem to remember doing this when I used Vegas way back when, but I can't remember the procedure.

What I'm trying to do is not interpolate frames or drop frames or anything like that, but make the media go onto a timeline at a different frame rate, in a 1 to 1 frame fashion. So for example if I have a 25 FPS media, it would playback unmodifed but be very slightly longer in a 24FPS timeline.

Right click on the media in project media and "conform to project framerate."

no such option is present.

there is an "add at project frame rate"...? If I use that, the clip is longer with a (say) 29fps media into a 24fps project, than just dragging it in, and appears to be what I'm looking for?

I noticed that the hub explorer seems to have no way to do this...

Yes, add at project framerate conforms it.

Right-click - Properties. There you will find the "conform to project framerate" option.

For media already on the timeline it's what jetdv wrote; in that case you have to potentially change the length or it will be cut off.

OK, so two ways,

In Project Media it's "add at project frame rate"

in the timeline, it's properties > conform.

(there is no 'properties > conform' option in Project Media, that I see)

For anything in Hub Explorer, I found that if I put a clip on the timeline first, it then appears in Project Media, so either of the above options work for the stock footage, if that step is taken first.

Thanks all!
