Video
Frame Rates
Frame Rates
Cubase supports different video and film frame rates.
Frame rate (speed)
Regardless of the frame counting system, the actual speed at which frames of video go by in real
time is the true frame rate.
Cubase supports the following frame rates:
24 fps
This is the true speed of standard film cameras.
25 fps
This is the frame rate of PAL video.
29.97 fps
This is the frame rate of NTSC video. The count can be either non-drop or drop-
frame.
30 fps
This frame rate is not a video standard anymore but has been commonly used
in music recording. Many years ago, it was the black and white NTSC broadcast
standard. It is equal to NTSC video being pulled up to film speed after a 2-3 telecine
transfer.
Non-Supported Frame Rates
Video files with non-supported frame rates can be played back, but the time displays are not
correct in this case and proper positioning is not guaranteed.
Furthermore, audio and video may not be in sync.
NOTE
If you want to use files with frame rates that are not supported by Cubase, we recommend that
you use an external application to convert the video file to a suitable frame rate.
Video Output Devices
Cubase supports several video output devices.
Viewing video files onscreen in the Video Player window may work just fine for many
applications, but often it is necessary to display video in a large format for viewing small details
and so others involved in the session can also see the video. Cubase provides the ability to use
several types of video output devices to accomplish this.
Dedicated Video Cards
You can use a dedicated video card.
The following video card is supported:
●
Blackmagic Design video output devices
Video is sent directly to the output of this video device.
