I am bringing this up on the list as I may not have understood the issue completely
myself, feel free to comment...
I rarely do split video/audio projects, so never came across the issue myself doing real
work, but I remember we talked about it from time to time already.
Consider the following situation: Someone wants to create a DCP from content created at
25fps, he creates either a video or image sequence with 25fps, and a split audio file with
that timing reference as well.
Now, in DCP-o-matic he want's to create a 24fps version. It is not a problem to
instruct DOM to recalculate the video frame rate, stretching the video in absolute length.
But what about the audio timing reference if I do NOT want to process the audio file
externally to 24fps? I should be able to tell DCP-o-matic 'use this audio, but
resample to a 24fps reference'. Actually I though that was possible using the frame
rate input box under 'Content'->'Audio' - but it seems this is not
possible. I can input '24' there instead of '25' (as I would with the
video), but nothing changes about the audio sample rate?
