grateful thanks Croweyes1121 for your update, i’m really looking forward to the result.
My pleasure. It seems that somehow, the TV footage was aired at a native 23.976 fps, yet the footage is played slightly slow (around 96.77% of proper speed - it’s not a typical PAL to NTSC slowdown, which would have been 95.905%, I tried that…it’s quite peculiar), with improper pitch…so I have two options: speed up all of the footage to the correct pitch (which I did originally, resulting in choppy motion due to skipped frames) or maintain the 23.976 frame rate and run the audio through a lengthy pitch-correction process which will fix the pitch but maintain length. The resulting footage will play smoothly, with audio at the correct pitch. It may not be the “correct” speed, but the motion will be fluid and not detectably wrong. This is what I’m opting for with v2.0.
