Final Cut Pro : Pal to NTSC.

[Wheatstone Bridge]

Hi folks ,
As I am still new to NLE ,here is a quick question. I did an assignment for a client in PAL , but now he wants it transfered to and edited in NTSC on FCP. How is this achieved ?

Thanks.

There really isn't an easy way to do it, with FCP or any other non-linear editing program (as far as I know). I've seen people just try and place a PAL sequence into a NTSC timeline with horrible results.

One good thing is that you're going from PAL to NTSC and not the other way around.

I have not personally tried this plug-in, but I have used his others and found them to be great.
