Compressor immediately changes the duration I've entered as soon as it starts rendering. No matter how many times I stop and start that it always changes it arbitrarily. But that doesn't seem to be the issue because the sync is usually off by about 1-2 minutes at the end of the 20 minutes. Perhaps I'm not using the correct link from the top of this blog. Could you re-post it in a reply so that I make sure I'm following your lead? Cheers, Rod I’ve done exactly what is mentioned in your video tutorial as well as what is written.

Forget about using this method with any project that has dialogue sync. I've spent several days trying to use Phillip's method to convert a 23:01:22 short documentary and no matter what compression settings I use the dialogue goes out of sync after a minute or two. If you're just making a project that has visuals layered on top of an audio track, and can afford several seconds of 'slipping' then this method works.

When I copy the audio from my original 30p edit sequenz to my 24p sequenz it slightly changes duration from 0:02:47:20 to 0:02:47:16. So my audio is now 4 frames to short. Any clues at what I might be doing wrong? Well, I have a problem here.

I've got a pretty fast macbook. Is it possible that compressor will actually do it much faster. I did one on "Good (frame blending) and it took 2 and a half hours. Thanks for this, and roll on 25p!

Unfortunately, this workflow doesn't work for projects that have precise audio syncing with the video. When setting the duration of the clip in Compressor, the final clips is close but never exactly what I set the duration to, so dialogue goes out of sync. I've tried a few times, but it never gives me consistent results, usually a few seconds off. Thanks for the tutorial, Philip.

Isn't the stuff already progressive, in which case I can just tick off the interlaced option in mpeg streamclip, or keep my hands of the frame controls in compressor... This is actually not a response to the abovem but the video tutorial I found on the canon website... Thanks, Daan Hi Philip,
