changing the time line setting

[Master chief]

ok for a while during testing the time line thing was ok , but know im starting to get confused when 00:30:00 = 01:00:00 and so on , is there any way to set it to use normal time setting ie 00:60:00 = 01:00:00

I don't think so, but you can show the time as frames rather than time - go to Tools Menu > Options > Units, and click the circle next to Frames Elapsed. That may be less confusing, as long as you remember how many frames per second.

 

And they're not really cut in half - American standard, I believe is 24 fps.

well the parts thats really confuseing is that 30 second is apperantly 1 minute in the time line and 60 seconds is 2 minutes

30 frames equals one second, approximately NTSC standard (29.97). You can use the edit options to change the frame rate, and you can change the frame rate of a project in the project properties.

as stated 30 per sec so for a 1 minute animation you need 60 x 30 frames or 1800 frames

"00:30:00 = 01:00:00"

 

00 => minutes : 30 => seconds : 00 => frames...

 

So what he is describing is, that 30 seconds are equal one minute in A:M which is a very strange behaviour. Didnt notice that till now, but if you can reproduce it, you should report it to hash.

well iv asumed that the time line was based on time not frames
