You can also customize a built-in setting or create your own custom setting from scratch. For
example, you can create a custom setting to convert progressive video to interlaced video,
or to convert 29.97-fps video to 23.98 fps video. Before you create a custom setting, view the
related built-in settings to see if any of those meet your needs. If one does, or if it comes close,
duplicate that setting, and then modify any properties that you need to change. The advantage
of duplicating a setting, rather than creating a new setting from scratch, is that many of the
properties are already congured, and thus, you’ll need to make fewer adjustments to the
setting. For more information, see Create custom settings on page 21.
