24p timeline to dvd. What’s the best way?
I have a project cut in dv on a 24P timeline and need to make a dvd without the jerky movement of the duplicate frames.
What is the best way to do this in FCP or Compressor?
Thanks!

Is it jerky now? If so, you must have done something, or NOT done something. Is this 24p or 24PA footage we are talking about here?

It originated as 24PA and was edited on a 24fps timeline.

I hope you mean a 23.98 timeline and not a 24fps timeline.
Just encode the DVD via Compressor. The DVD will play back 23.98 fps just fine. No duplicate frames will be added.

Yes, 23.98

I thought that’s what was done. Step framing the DVD shows the duplicate frames, and it looks jerky at full speed when panning or watching the rolling credits. Shouldn’t we be adding the 3:2 pulldown with the interlaced frame in the middle?

Bruce, et.al,
I’m having the same issue. Footage was originated on a Panasonic HDX 200 P2 camera at 23.98 and edited in FCP with matching rate. I was told that an upgrade from FCP 5.0 to FCP 5.1.2 addressed the issues working with 24 (23.98) frame rates. And while it has helped, it hasn’t totally resolved the issue. I’m still getting the duplicate frames. Does ANYONE have any ideas here?

You have to double check compressor as it sometimes guesses wrong if you use a preset. Make sure you tell it 23.98 fps and no field order. It will default to NTSC.
