    Hi all,
    I’m struggling to understand something. I have a sequence at 23.98. My Kona card is set to output 59.97i, using 2:3:2:3 pattern. There are two modes available on the HDCAM deck 29.97 psf, and 59.97i. What I dont understand is why i can spot the pulldown by finding a cut that lands on two fields belonging to one frame (When i use the psf option), but when using the 59.97 option, the cuts land perfectly on frame boundaries… Can anyone explain?

    You cant go 23.98p to 29.97 psf. Use 1080i easy setup
    Or set your video output to 1080i29.97
