Overflow converting ratio denominators (17 :: 18)

[Guest]

When I try to import videos from my HDD (Shadow Play) It always give me this error

Overflow converting ratio denominators (17 :: 18)

I tried to change the frame rate but the video got shorter

How to fix it with out effecting the video length ??

Use Adobe Media Encoder (or, if that doesn't work, Handbrake) to convert your video to a production codec - that is, DNxHD, Cineform, QuickTime with the PNG codec, QuickTime with the Photo-JPEG codec, etc. and then import the resulting video into After Effects.

Is there more easier way because converting will take a long time with long footages ??

No.

Shadow Play records at a variable frame rate. After Effects can not deal with that. It must be converted first.
