Conform frame sizes and frame rates
Final Cut Pro manages project settings automatically. This means you can work with multiple
media types with differing frame sizes (also referred to as resolution) and frame rates in the same
project. When you add the first video clip to your project, Final Cut Pro automatically sets the
format, frame size, and frame rate for the entire project based on the properties of that first clip
(or, more precisely, on the properties of the clip’s source media file).
You can modify the project’s settings at any time, and you can control, on a clip-by-clip basis,
how Final Cut Pro conforms an individual clip’s frame rate and frame size to match the project
settings. All of the project information in this section applies equally to compound clips, which
can have their own distinct project settings.
You can add interlaced clips to progressive (non-interlaced) projects and progressive clips to
interlaced projects. To add an interlaced clip to a progressive project, see the instructions below.
Final Cut Pro accepts progressive clips in interlaced projects automatically.
