PAL conversion/Cadence problems?

We have a movie shot in 24p advanced mode that needs to be converted to PAL. The problem is that our 24p advanced mode version has cadence problems. We edited on Avid Express Pro and then output the movie on an Avid Adrenaline to Digibeta (29.97) to deliver the movie. We are now getting the cadence grief and warnings that we could be in trouble on the PAL convert. Anyone have any knowledge on this? Any ways of successfully doing this conversion?
 
Re: PAL conversion/Cadence problems?

Who is giving you the warnings? Did you edit at native 24 on Xpress Pro? From a 24p project (23.976) the Adrenaline will output a true 2:3 cadence for the entire show (as will Mojo). From there, it should not be an issue at all for a PAL conversion. I would need more details as to the issues that are being raised.
