There's also the amusing thing that video TC considers the whole frame (like a whole 30th of second), while in audio, we think of TC stopping at the top of the frame. That's how you can get 1 frame errors when sending audio to a video editor. |
Do you have a suggestion for how they should author the DVD off FCP? (For accuracy, I mean.)
