23,976fps to 29,97fps

[Dahula]

hiho,
i have a 23,976fps avi-file but i have to get a 29,97fps VCD-file.
now the question: in TMPGEnc just selecting the VideoCD (NTSC).mcf to get a propper one or is there anything else i have to think of?

Thx

VideoCD (NTSCfilm).mcf is what you need.

NTSC-Film (23.976fps) would work much better. dont worry about it not playing correctly on any players. it will work just fine, and perhaps look better, since there is no frame rate conversion.

but if what you really want to get 29.97, then yes. VideoCD NTSC is what you want.

A VCD is FRAME based. This means that your 23.976fps video is what you want. 29.97fps is not allowed for a VCD.

You DVD player will automatically apply the 2:3 pulldown on the progressive video.

your saying that 29.97fps is not allowed for a VCD makes absolutely no sense. that is the standard framerate that is used.

and yes. you are right about the dvd player doing 3-2 pulldown (aka 2:3 pulldown) during playback.

Sorry you are wrong. 29.97fps is perfectly valid for VCD.

Okay, my bad. I know that playback is only 29.97fps, but I thought that encoding had to be 23.976fps. But, I have never made a VCD, so I was speaking from what I remember of the specs.

Thas Okay, we all make mistakes, but the specs ARE listed via a link top RH side of the page
