Re: [FCP-L] AJA QTtoDPX and FCP don't agree

When you selectively read just the section that will fit your
reasoning it may seem that way. But upon further reading of the
entire post you realize that regardless of the duration of the shot
that 1 to 3 frames are added to the head of the shot and 22 or 23
frames are added to the tail. FCP and QTpro both report the length as
expected and logged, but when extracting to a file sequence the number
of frame is consistently wrong by anywhere from 23 to 26 frames.
Weather the logged shot is 1sec, 5 sec, 10 sec, 2 min, 3:12, 3:12:14,
or any other length of shot tried.
