1. Select an output row in a job in the batch area, or select a
custom setting in the Settings pane.
2. In the Video inspector, do one of the following:
Choose an item from the “Frame rate” pop-up menu.

the transcoded file to that of the source file. You can also
choose any of several commonly used frame rates,
including 23.976 fps, 24 fps, and so on.
Type a custom frame rate into the field to the right of the
“Frame rate” pop-up menu.
Note: Some formats (such as Apple Devices settings) do
not permit custom frame rates.
Note: Frame rate conversion can have a subtle or dramatic
effect depending on how big a difference there is between the
original and new frame rates, and also depending on the
specific nature of the footage being converted. Footage with a
lot of movement yields a much more visible change than
footage with little movement in the frame. Frame rate
conversion may also add visible artifacts in the transcoded
file; from stuttering (sometimes called “juddery”) playback, to
