CGO3+ Slow motion settings

[Sureshot]

The flight video was recorded at 1080p 120FPS.
I tried slowing the flight timeline speed in the editor to 25%, but the 30FPS result in rendering dropped every 3rd frame..
I then slowed the flight timeline speed to 24.166%. (29FPS)
The 30FPS result rendered all the frames, but produced one double frame per second.
I'm still tweaking the timeline speed.

At 3 minutes in, you can see the slow motion traffic on the highway.
No luck at 24.975% (NTSC speed). It still dropped every 3rd frame.

The H is not recording at 30 FPS or multiples thereof... 30 FPS = 29.97, 60 FPS = 59.94, 120 FPS = 119.88.
So you need your timeline setup for 29.97 so that you can slow the high speed footage down by 50 or 25% and it should be correct.

On my first try I set the timeline speed to 25%, but my editor (NCH wave pad) wants to produce at 30FPS. The result was every 3rd frame dropped.

From what you're saying, the difficulty is specific to my editor's rendering engine.
So that must be why I'm having to do this work-around.

Perhaps try with something like DaVinci Resolve, which will let you specify 29.97 as the project frame rate ?

@Sureshot what software for video are you using? Is it the NCH VideoPad Video Editor? What did you specify when you uploaded to YouTube?

Video Pad export 1080p 30FPS.
Youtube default upload from that file.
My only exception was the editor time line speed set to 24.5% vs. 25% to prevent the frame drops with very few dup frames.

Don't change the speed of the timeline, instead specify a frame rate of either 23.97 FPS or 29.97 FPS. FPS - Frames Per Second. This allows the footage shot at 120 FPS to play at a slower frame rate. If you have 10 seconds of 120 FPS footage 10X120=1200 frames of video. 1200÷24 or (23.97)=50 seconds of slow motion video give or take a half second or so.

Hope this helps.
