When I import my 60 fps footage to movie, it looks fine. the framerate is 60 and everything looks good. however, when I drag my clip down into edit, it goes into 30 fps. can anyone give me some pointers on what to do next?
Mac mini (Late 2014), macOS High Sierra (10.13.4)
iMovie sets the project fps based on the first clip added to the timeline. Make sure that the first clip you add to a new project timeline is 60fps. There have been some reports recently about fps issues with 4k clips in iMovie 10.9 but no solutions yet identified. What is the resolution of your clips and what version of iMovie are you using?

Since everything works ok on another computer perhaps there is corruption in the project. Try creating a new project and see if the clips will edit in it at the right fps. If that doesn't work try opening iMovie holding down the command and option keys and delete preferences.
Since you have re-downloaded iMovie the only other suggestion I can make is to try in a new user. Either create a new user or use your guest account and see if your clips will edit into iMovie at the correct fps.
What happens when you try to export it? Do you get a 2.7k export option?
On your first computer, open iMovie while holding down the Option and Command keys and selecting to delete preferences in the box that appears. See if that resolves the editing issue. However, I don't think you will get a 2.7k export option. If you do, please report back. Another thing you can try is a re-download of iMovie.

Hi, Ethan,
iMovie does not support 2.7k. It supports 1080 60p and 4k 30p.

I am using the most recent version of imovie, and my videos resolution are 2.7k (taken on my gopro). As we speak i am trying to edit the same videos on another computer and they are in 60fps, full resolution. I am confused about the library aspect however, as i have supposedly cleared it several times
I did create new projects, and I did open iMovie using option and command and reset preferences, but the clips still don't appear in 60fps. But when I import them, they appear in 60 fps above the editing section of iMovie
Rich,
How does resolution have anything to do with its framerate? In any case, like i said earlier, i can edit the same clips on another mac with imovie and they display 60fps
I did all of that and deleted the program but the clips are still not showing in 60fps. However, in the section above the editing section of iMovie they do
imovie is not supporting 60 fps video
