Topic: Is there a SVP setting to turn 2s animations to 4s?

In animations, anime is usually 2s (1 character animation per 2 frames) but the new dragon prince cartoon is CGI and with 3d models, but the models are animated with 3s (one animation frame every 3 frames) to make it have more cartoonic artistic style which looks very choppy. Is there a way to interpolate those character frames from 3s to 2s, 1.5 or 1s?

Re: Is there a SVP setting to turn 2s animations to 4s?

only if you drop every 3rd frame from the source stream

1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3 ...
1 2 x 1 2 x 1 2 x -> "2s"
1 x x 1 x x 1 x x -> "1s"

Oh yeah, would be very time consuming, but could work. If i drop one scenery frame, it will be 2s. I can try to video edit a few secs or a minute at most to test with, but then i have to probably SVP transcode it from 16 fps to 30 or 32 fps. as i then remove a frame.

If you know avisynth syntax you can add script to drop frames on the fly.

See "Drop every other frame" description in Example section.

I tried to add it, but it didn't give me an option in SVP, nor did it change the outcome in mpc hc.
