Satish, about the frameserver and 24p.

I have frameserved a 24p timeline via the frameserver to Procoder 2 and set Procoder 2 to produce a 24p output for a Mastering NTSC m2v. After 22 seconds of rendering Procoder crashes. If I create a 24p mpg in Vegas (No Frameserver) the timeline renders fine. Does you frameserver handle 24p OK?. Procoder recognized the input signpost AVI as a 24p progressive avi.

It's a ProCoder bug. You can read about it in the Canopus forum (login required). I'll quote the important stuff:

Answer from Canopus_BH: We found the issue - it will be corrected in an update. It has to do with the Closed Caption pass-through, but that's not user-accessible for the MPEG target right now.

Thanks I posted there too but have not gone to check it yet. Didn't know about the bug in Procoder 2.

It looks like this bug can be avoided by simply changing the Stream Format to Generic ISO MPEG stream in the target parameters.
I just tried it and ProCoder 2 didn't crash. If the stream format is DVD it crashes. Give it a try.
