Well first of all you should calm yourself down because I've also posted before and sometimes it took days to gfet answered.
Back to the subject...
I don't think there is any way of doing this without reencoding. But here's a way to do it. You have to convert to avi at the best quality settings. My advice is to use MJPEG at quality between 18 and 20. Beware that this will fill up much disk space. Then use the resample filter on virtual dub from 352x288 to 352x240 on the frame rate change to 23.976 fps.
On the audio part you have to extract the sound to a wave file and by using a sound editor you must lower the speed by 4.27% (25->23.976fps) save the wav file.
Reencode with tmpgenc and frameserv with virtualdub, on the settings choose the 3:2 pulldown on playback flag. Be sure that on the audio you choose the new wav file. You new file will be a perfect NTSC film file.

About the quality degration I dont think that this will not degrade quality too much as long as you choose highest possible quality when converting to AVI. If you have a bunch of free GBs of free disk space you can choose no compression. This way you won't loose quality when converting to AVI.

I appreciate your responce. It was perfect, your method seems perfect. The problem is, I do not know how 2 use virtual dub. It is very bloated with unspecific features and that only complicates things. I tried it once......
Do u know of an equaly good way 2 do it without touching the program Virtual dub?
Thank uComputers -
No I'm sorry I can think that virtual dub is the only option. If its the frameserving that troubles you, you can save to a new avi. But than again you will need the extra disk space. I never used this method because I live in a PAL area so I never needed it. But I think it will do the trick.

There are tutorials on this site that show you how to do it step by step.

Chris X,
I wish I had a copy of RE.. u lucky dog
If u hate V.dub but you have lots of disk space try this:
(TMPGEnc 2.55x or higher required)
1) With TMPGEnc, under video source, open up the
dat movie file on your vcd.
2) Next to settings, click on load and choose a NTSC
VCD template.
3) Click on File, then output to file, then mpeg, then give
the saved movie a name.
That's it! The fastest, simplest way to do this I've ever found. -
Yes but there will be slight jitter if done this way. My method is smooth and resizing with vdub gives much better quality
-
Chris ...I would use Virtualdub.
Its really not that difficult to learn and its a terrific tool."Today is only yesterdays tomorrow" -

is being converted right? Why waste all that time? By converting
to NTSC the resolution and colour quality is lost anyway. sheesh.
