24p: Am I missing something?

I tried the 24p format and quite honestly, I don't think it looks that good. Does this sound right?

I did it with a 90 second actual DV (not analog) test clip. I rendered the clip once with AVI/DV (and let DVD-A do the final render) and also rendered the same clip to 24p AVI, then re-rendered to the DVD-A mpg2 format.

I can now play either clip on my set-top DVD player and the normal, non 24p clip, looks much better.

Does this sound reasonably correct?

Did I create it correctly? The clip, when all was said and done did show as a 24p clip. I created it as follows, presumably as per the instructions.

1.) Took a AVI/DV clip and rendered it as 24p/AVI.
2.) Took the 24p/AVI clip into Vegas.
3.) Rendered the 24p/AVI clip as MPG2.
4.) Took the MPG2 clip into DVD-A. DVD-A did not do anything to the clip, so it took it straight in.
5.) Created and burned the DVD.

Both clips being the same, the regular 29.97 MPG2 clip looks better.

Have I done something wrong?

Thank you for any assistance anyone can offer.
