And success!

Remastered DYRL mpeg is now 23.97 fps, 720x480.

Decapitation scene

49 frames

Same frame length as censored BD decapitation scene.

Media Info and Sony Vegas report the prepared DYRL mpeg as 23.97 fps. Womble Mpeg editor keeps mis-reporting the video as 29.97 fps and sneaks in some extra frames to make up for the increased frame rate!

In Womble, I can't find the project settings for editing to keep the video at 23.97 fps.  So, I'll have to use Sony Vegas for snapshots or just use Video Enhancer to up-convert the video.

I looked around on the internet to see what is causing the 23.97 fps video to be recognized as 29.97 fps in Womble. 

Apparently, when Tmpeg encoder creates the m2v video, it puts 2:3 pulldown flags on the 23.97 fps video, so that the video will be easily used in NTSC 29.97 fps video projects.  The Tmpeg encoder does not allow me to remove the 2:3 pulldown flag option when encoding the video.  Womble recognizes the 2:3 pulldown flags in the 23.97 fps video and mis-reports the video as 29.97 fps. Thankfully, Sony Vegas is able to bypass the 2:3 pulldown flag when I set the video project as 23.97 fps.

I am re-encoding the DRYL mpegs again with Tmpeg encoder at 10 bit video and highest quality.  The default settings of Tmpeg encoder were 8 bit video at fastest encoding level.  And so, I will have to use Sony Vegas to keep all the video at 23.97 fps for editing.

Sony Vegas is recognizing the mpeg videos in the editing time-line. 

Do I need to convert the mpeg videos into lossless lagarith .avi videos to keep consistency with the BD lossless lagarith avi videos?
