When does doitfast4u determine pulldown is not needed?

[Talayero]

Hi,

I've just encoded a NTSC movie using doitfast4u and CCE.

The source is film 23.976, progressive and bottom first.

I had autodetect ntsc type enabled in Doitfast4u. The encoded file was a NOPULL.mpv, that's to say pulldown wasn't made.

The encoded dvd is almost perfect but I think I see that the lateral movements when panning in movie are not totally fluent, as if some frame was missing now and then. It's hard to tell because it's just a slight issue, but if I compare the encoded dvd with the original one I think in this one the movements are more fluent.

I wonder If I can improve the encoding checking in Batchccews 2:3 pulldown, and I also wonder if a source like this one (film 23.976, progressive, bottom first) needs really a pulldown or not.

Thank you in advance

iirc it determines video/film from the .d2v scan. it checks the last line and depending if % film is certain amount or greater it will change the .d2v header to forcefilm. the level i think is 95% there are some films that fall below that (the logos and credits are video, or some cg segments will be video) so you may get 89% film and it will process as video. i would say if its hurting worse to have it processed as video then force it to film.

Thank you in advanceThe only thing about that is if the avs is thinking 30fps and you just force batchccews to do film.. it will be all wrong. you need to have doitfast4u set it up properly (by forcing film mode)
