    Compressor can do this. Set the new rate in the Encoder>Settingsn Frame Controls you can choose several ways to do Rate Conversion.

     

    If you don't have Comprassor and don't want to buy it – try MPEG Streamclip.

    There is only a limited amount of Compressor instruction available unless you purchase a subscription to something like Lynda.com or a tutorial from Ripple or Larry Jordan.

     

    My advice to everyone who is interested in learning about Compressor is to read the first two chapters of the user manual – on basics and workflows. Those should provide enough of an understanding to cover the majority of things users need Compressor to accomplish. Of course there is plenty more for those who want to explore.


    Here is a short write-up from Ken Stone on changing frame rates.

     

    Good luck.
