24fps in, 30fps out?

> The issue is when the HD content is resolved by/through/into the default DVD aspect ratio, invariably it crops the video segments when played on a typical DVD device, in this case an older Toshiba flat face CRT television.
That can be the setup on the DVD player. If not that, something is wrong with the transcode settings.
> The caveat is that opening the DVD on a laptop, with VLC etc. gives the correct aspect ratio when the screen is sized.
Software players may not display correctly – including when they show the content the way you intended, but not the way a DVD player will show.

No one has addressed my original post, at least not in a language I can understand.
I shoot all my footage at 1080 @23.976 and import it to premiere with the HDSLR 1080 @ 23.976 preset. I edit all my footage in premiere and export to H.264 BluRay. I then create my disc in encore and render out as a disc image for BluRay and then followed by DVD image. I than burn my disc. BluRay motion blur always looks fine but DVD motion blur looks different. I can tell that the fps is bring changed. How can I set Encore to render so that the motion blur retains the original look?One man with courage makes a majority.

I’m sorry – I have no knowledge to help you – never heard of this “bluray motion blur” or “DVD motion blur”.
If you want to keep your 23.976 fps then you must edit quality presets and manually select the transcode, in Encore, to 23.976fps – you cannot use default nor apply an edited transcode as the default.
Your original posts said Encore automatically does a pulldown, changing from 24 to 30 – I simply said you can override that by editing quality presets.
Good luck

Really? You have never heard of motion blur? OK. When you record footage at a higher framer rate the motion tends to look more vivid or sharp and unrealistic. This is the result of a natural phenomenon called Persistence of Vision. The human eye can only take in so much information at a time and must reset in order for the brain to process the information. Our eyes actually “reset” about 24 times a second. This biological quirk is what makes the stop motion animation work otherwise our eyes would see the choppiness of animation. I hope that helps.
So I went to the “edit” menu and clicked “project settings” and of course the settings I need to change are grayed out and not accessible. I can not change DVD framrate. Is there a round about way to do this?

I have of course heard of motion blur – just not in the transcode setting for DVD. I know they exist everywhere else in basically all edit systems, Adobe AE … etc. Thanks for the info. but I do understand about the human eye and television. 🙂
You do not go to project settings. Inside Encore, you go to File drop down menu and “Edit quality settings” or right click on the asset in Encore and select “Transcode Settings” and in the dialogue that opens there is an “Edit Quality Presets”

Again, it is not a “DVD” frame rate – it is a video or an asset frame rate.

Ok, found the menu that you told me. Yeah, the settings are correct in there. Strange. I wonder why the software is doing this? Anytime I burn a disc the footage on DVD looks like it was shoot at 29.97 but BluRay looks 23.976?

@ Ricky Barrow:
I am having nearly the same exact issue as Rex here, but I am using CS 5.1. You said you encode 24fps DVDs all the time, so I’d love to hear from you on this. When I go into File -> Edit Quality Presets, I can create a customized series of settings, and click OK to save them – but in the Project menu, next to the Premier Project Sequence, it says the DVD Transcode Settings are still at “Automatic.” I don’t know how to select the saved settings that I created under the Edit Quality Presets box – it’s probably really simple, but I’m new at this. Can you help?

on a pc, right click and choose/select “Transcode Settings” – then you should see all of your presets
