24fps question

BabaG wrote on 4/27/2005, 1:39 PM

is there a true 24fps delivery medium for digital projection?
or is 24fps material always folded into a 30fps file and flagged
for pulldown removal?

thanks,
BabaG

24P DVDs are encoded as 24fps files. The DVD player can send the raw 24fps data out to a projector that understands 24fps, or optionally the DVD player can add pulldown if it detects that it's supposed to output NTSC.

so i could essentially make a 1:1 copy of a film, at least as far as
frame rate goes?

So, would using the 23.97 setting in DVDA2 would give you a true 24p DVD?
