thanks for the comment

now i just hope you browse this thread again,to see this

First you need to IVTC (undo the 3:2 pulldown) to convert the 29.97 fps back to 23.976 fps. This removes the repeated fields and restores your video back to the progressive frames of the original film. (By all accounts this may take some time, as the pulldown pattern changes throughout the laserdisc -- although others have done it, I'm sure someone has a record of the change points that they would be willing to share.)

Now when you encode the 23.976 fps video, the encoder insert flags into the MPEG stream to tell the player to apply 3:2 pulldown during playback (getting you back to the NTSC framerate of 29.97 fps).

I use CCE 2.70 - older versions didn't have the 3:2 pulldown option. If you select framerate of 23.976 and make sure the output type set to is "MPEG-2 for DVD" then the 3:2 option (actually 2:3, just to be confusing) is selected automatically.
