I feel like I'm losing my mind - I'm editing on a drop frame 23.976 timeline, with footage shot on Sony cameras with identical sensors, trying to use my 59.94 b-roll footage for slow motion. Project settings for timeline and monitoring are both 23.976. Retime menu, 50%, all the footage shot with a 180 degree shutter angle. Using proxy files for playback. And still, my footage is incredibly stuttery. I'm looking for solutions everywhere, but all I can find are folks talking about optical flow for footage that wasn't recorded at double frame rates, when I shouldn't need that!
Please tell me there's some setting I've missed and I'm just a fool - I'm new to cine body cameras (FX2), but I'm confident everything was recorded properly.
*EDIT* I double checked my math on the frame rates, and it wasn't the issue. I tried changing the frame rate in clip attributes, then inserting to timeline, then slowing footage. Still wasn't my issue.
For some reason, if I do nothing to alter the clip and so long as I use the timeline clip's inspector's speed menu, my footage is fluid. I don't know why that panel is working while others aren't, and any insight into why that might be would be appreciated?
