I did manage to get one PIP working with a 29.97fps 1080i MPEG2 primary stream and a 29.97fps 480i MPEG2 secondary stream.

This means that hypothetically if I were to convert all my content from 23.976fps AVC to 29.97fps MPEG2 I should be able to use PIP with it. Herein lies another problem however. I know that to convert 23.976fps to 29.97fps you need to use pulldown but when I tried encoding it with MainConcept Reference and loading it into Scenarist HDMV it gave me the error: 'Error Content: Value of ProgressiveSequence is not supported in the BD standard.' which I assume has something to do with the pulldown flag? The question is, how can I get it compliant now?

Edit: I tried re-encoding a pulldowned MPEG2 stream to get rid of the pulldown flag and I'm still getting that error so it appears not to be that but I still can't figure out just what it is refering to then. I tried encoding both progressive and interlaced and it made no difference.
