Well I hope I didnt mess up. I shot one full tape 24PN and another in 24Padvanced.

I searched but was unsure for FCP the workflow I need to make them work on the same timeline for DVD output? I would prefer to work on a 29.97 timeline as some other elements may be used from older video sources.

Is 24PA capable to work on a 30fps timeline?

Thank You
 
29.97 timeline = 24p captured 29.97 and used directly in timeline. 24pa will require advanced pulldown removal and then adding standard pulldown to the footage. (FCP 4.5 won't do this)
23.98 timeline. 24pa capture with advance pulldown removal. Capture 24p at 29.97 and reverse telecine in Cinema Tools.
