when uploading 24pa footage from dvx to final cut pro u must use 24pa advanced pulldown removale setting. my question is when i burn the finished product to dvd, do i need to put the advanced pulldown back or leave it removed?
By not re-inserting pulldown, you'll be creating a 24p DVD. There is no reason under the sun not to do this. It saves you disc space. It eliminates interlace artifacts on progressive displays. It's a quicker render.
If you really want another opinion, how about Hollywood? Every Hollywood movie is put to DVD as 24p. No pulldown.
