Unless you shot 24p, then just use your editing system to speed up the footage 4% to get 25p. (Your audio also)

heres how i did it
heres how i did it
I work in fcp studio so i took my 24p sequence ntsc and exported it to compressor and converted it to pal there. Very slow but it works. There is an excellent article about how at http://www.macworld.com/article/49306/2006/02/marchcreate.html.
My question now is do I put that quicktime converted file back into compressor to make a mp2 for dvd authoring?

another way 24p to pal

Another way although the resolution is a little less than the compressor way is to take your sequence into cinema tools and conform the 24p to 25 and then create an 8bit pal timeline in fcp and reframe the content into the larger frame size. Export as a Pal file then process in compressor. When I did this I sharpened the material a bit using the quicktime filter at a level of one. This way has no cross-dissolves between cuts so it looks and flows better than the compressor way.
