I've got a very weird problem with DGPulldown... well, not with DGPulldown itself I think but it's in the loop..
did a bunch of re-encodes using the method (720x480, 25fps, progressive) and then ran DGPulldown on them, all nicely appearing to be 29.97 to the outside world (TMPGenc Author, Womble Video Wizard (not editing, checking the frame rate), etc.. etc..)
Then I was trying out a new authoring program (DVD Composer
www.codejam.com) and it only sees the video as 23.97 FPS, naturally the audio track drifts way out of sync..)
Here's the problem.... I fed it some OTHER "real" 3:2 pulldown streams (the 'normal way' of 23.97 > 29.97) and it sees that as 29.97 just fine... only chokes on the 25 > 29.97 stream....
any thoughts on how to 'enlighten' the the program that it's misreading the stream? I've been in contact with the author and they are looking at it (and pointed them to the dgpulldown link on
www.videohelp.com) but nothing like checking in at the source...
