Can Clipchamp Export Video at 24 or 25 FPS?
Question details
The user wants to know if it is possible to change the video export frame rate in Clipchamp to 24 or 25 frames per second.

- Product
- Clipchamp
- Device & OS
- not provided
- Scenario
- Exporting video projects specifically for European workflows or cinematic purposes that require a 24 or 25 FPS format.
- Observed behavior
- Clipchamp locks all video exports to a default of 30 frames per second, with no visible settings to adjust the frame rate to 24 or 25 FPS.
Since Clipchamp is frequently updated as part of the Microsoft ecosystem, ensure your application is updated to the latest version to check if new export settings have been rolled out.
Use External Tools to Convert Frame Rate
Because Clipchamp does not natively support exporting at 24 or 25 FPS, you will need to export at the default 30 FPS and use a third-party tool to convert the frame rate.
Currently, Microsoft limits Clipchamp video exports to exactly 30 frames per second. While they have indicated that improved export-quality controls may be added in the future, the best current workaround is to render the video at 30 FPS and convert it afterward.
Finish editing your video in Clipchamp and click the 'Export' button. Select your desired resolution (e.g., 1080p) and let the video render at the default 30 FPS.
Download and install a free video conversion tool such as HandBrake on your computer.
Open HandBrake, import your Clipchamp video, navigate to the 'Video' tab, and change the 'Framerate (FPS)' dropdown to either 24 or 25. Click 'Start Encode' to save your new file.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my Clipchamp video restricted to 30 FPS?
Clipchamp currently uses 30 FPS as its universal default export frame rate. This standard is highly compatible with most web playback and social media platforms, though it lacks flexibility for professional workflows.
Can I export at 60 FPS in Clipchamp?
No. Just like the 24 or 25 FPS limitation, Clipchamp does not currently support exporting at 60 frames per second. All exports are fixed at 30 FPS.
Will Clipchamp add custom frame rates in the future?
Microsoft has acknowledged user requests for better render quality and frame-rate controls. Official forum responses indicate that these options are being explored for future updates.
Does exporting at 30 FPS affect European broadcast formats?
Yes, European broadcast standards (PAL) typically require 25 FPS. Using a 30 FPS video in a 25 FPS timeline can cause slight stuttering or frame-skipping, which is why external conversion is recommended.
