possible to export 1920x1080 30p footage from Premiere CS5?

[richpedd]

I'm trying to get full 1920x1080 30p footage to export from Premiere CS5.I can't modify the MPEG2 Blu-Ray or H264 Blu-Ray presets to get this combination. I need this footage to be .m2v (mpeg) or .mkv (h264) in order to import to Encore to make a progressive Blu-Ray disc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Neither DVD nor Blu-ray can take 30p media. At 30 fps, it has to be interlaced.

Thanks for the reply. Does this go for storebought DVDs/BDs too? I assume because they're usually 24p this is a non-issue.

It goes for all disks. 30p is a nonexistent standard found only on cameras.

Blu-ray doesn't do 30p. But it does do 30i, and PPro / AME does a pretty good job of transcoding to that. The alternative is to transcode to 24p, but that entails 3:2 pull down which is usually seen as "judder". Try it both ways and decide which you like best.
