I've tried to IVTC the 82 P&S but the cadence is crazy and I can't really figure it out.


For most of the movie, the pattern is
...2 2:3:2:3:2:3:2:3:2:2:3:2:3:2:3:2:2:3:2:3:2:3:2:3:2 2...
In other words, 25 frames comprise 61 fields.
It's IVTC-able using ...doubleWeave.selectEvery(61, ...plus twenty-five parameters)

Reel6B is the exception to that rule.
Seems like the masterers were worried that reel might not fit on the end of Side 1,
so they cranked the speed up a notch to squeeze it in.
It's faster than the rest of the movie.
I haven't cracked the pulldown cadence for Reel6B yet.

 I guess it's not as randomly wacky as sw-jsc but the time compression leads to some long patterns.
