Your video seems to be a progressive movie with pulldown applied.
That means your video is originally 23.976 frames per second.
So you have to remove pulldown by reverse telecine process to end up with progressive frames.Andreas Gumm

You have created a DDP image which is intended for replication plants & not for burning. Since double layer discs for burning having issues sometimes (read errors) I recommend you burn each folder on a DVD5 disc, name the disc correct with layer number & send the set to the replication plant. Every professional replication plant can deal with it.
Since 2 years we never send discs to the plant, we always upload our files vie FTP. Ask the replication company if you have a fast connection to the web. May it works for you?

It’s the usual way to speed up films from 24 to 25 fps for PAL countries.
It’s the most comfortable way & it archives best picture quality.Andreas

It seems the footage has wrong field order on output.
It must be top field first.Andreas

That is indeed the best way 🙂

Usually it’s a good moment to capture the movie also to file when the DCP will be created. It’s simply careless not doing this. The lack of it can’t be compensated easy. So your client will realize that it’s cheaper to create a file version too in the DCP creation process than doing BluRay encoding from a reverse engineered master.
A genereal question comes up, what kind of DCP is it? Is it encoded to JPEG2000 or to a non DCI-conform MPEG MXF?
If you have access to Pro Media Carbon & the DCP is not encrypted you can try one of the following routes:
1st route = conversion via ffmpeg to V210 at 10bit
2nd route = conversion via VirtualDub (with ffmpeg input plugin) to any other AVI codec (depends on the installed codecs, sadly 8bit processing only)For JPEG2000 sources you must convert the color space from CieXYZ to RGB color space. I have in mind that this can be done by ProMedia Carbon. FFMPEG sadly has no XYZ to RGB conversion fiter.
ProMedia is sadly a very expensive tool but may it will earns its money if you get such sources more often.

Mmh, you are right!
A MacBookPro is still a great piece of hardware!I’m curious about if a virtual machine can save you workflow alternatively?
I don’t know how good DVDSP work in VM-environment!Andreas Gumm

It’s maybe a hard decision, but it’s better to say “Good bye, Apple” when investing your hard earned money in new hardware! Use your reliable Apple stuff as long as you can, but have an eye to the fact that the future for Apple-PROs isn’t the best!
Better a scary than a long winded end. 🙂FCP was a well working, but in the same time a real slow working (render time) piece of software! The bad thing is, that Apple has stopped any development to force a realtime orientated NLE software for the industry! We now having iMovie Pro!
Since Apple has started to force online distribution only, they have stopped maintainance & continous work on DVDSP & they have decided to stop support for any future physical media (BD)!
Maybe you can keep your DVDSP alive in a virtual machine or something!
