What fps problem is there? The R1 DVD is 23.976 progressive. Unless you're talking about Martins/Coys.
No, unfortunately. The source master might be from a 23.97 fps, but the dvd, once ripped, clearly indicate the fps at 29.97 (checked with both tmpgenc, TsMuxer & DVD FAB).
I updated Wikipedia today since they didn't seem to have info about the changes to ATCJI. It has me worried if there are other alterations that we haven't noticed. (I actually double checked for cherub nudity alterations during one scene.)
In order to dead sure, we have check nearly frame by frame (at least for ATCJI). For Pecos Bill, I can't say, but I can check it out, I have both versions on DVD (PAL & NTSC).
