24p..23.976p ??

I'm trying to make the jump to editing 24 frames per second. I want to make sure that I understand any of the allowances that have to be made or any adjustments that have to be made.

I think I understand that 29.97 fps video that is shot as 24p advanced will be inverse telecined in Vegas down to 23.976 frames per second and not 24 frames per second. I understand that Vegas will allow you to edit at 23.976 fps so that the sound will not change pitch and everything will play as expected.

Now, if I plan to make DVD's from my 23.976fps project I don't think there will be a problem since DVD players will do the 3:2 pulldown on the fly to create a 29.97fps NTSC complient video. Question: The DVD player can do the 3:2 pulldown but is it expecting 24fps data instead of 23.976fps.

If I plan on rendering the 23.976fps project to film then I believe that there is something I must do to make it play accurately at 24 frames per second. I'm not sure what I must do. I think I have to adjust the sound some how???

Does anyone have any thoughts on these two situations?

By the Way, I am James Rogers. I do special make-up effects and some digital imaging. My website is: www.clipboardvideo.com. If anyone needs advise or help with the kinds of effects that I do then let me know. It's all about helping each other....

You might want to consider DVFim Maker 2.0.

dvfilm.com

Don't know if it's the solution you're looking for, but it's worth looking into. They have a trial demo too for Win or Mac.

Best,
