Fix TW Match Frames button
Enable to fix match frame errors. When you import an EDL that contains dissolves or timewarps, a match frame error may occur. This can cause an unwanted cut at the point where the timewarp begins in your EDL. Match frame errors occur when the in point of the second edit in a dissolve is not the same timecode as the out point of the previous shot. This feature is enabled by default.
EDL Frame Rate box
Displays the framerate of the current EDL. Click to select another one.
Conversion option box
Select the option that corresponds to the type of conversion that you want to apply to the EDL. The conversion scripts that appear in this list depend on the frame rate of the EDL you are loading.
Frame Code Mode box
Select the option (29.97 fps or 30 fps) that corresponds to the EDLs that you are loading. If you are loading multiple EDLs, the same Frame Code Mode is used for all of them.
Varicam Frame Rate box
Select the Varicam frame rate.
