my problem is that a mpeg2 video stream of mine going
into mplex goes in with 29.97fps and out with 23.97fps

--
the original footage is from a VOB file, it is
interlaced NTSC video @29.97fps, that goes into
cinelerra, edited with some still images
--

In cinelerra I render seperate mpeg2 audio/video files
to be joined with 'mplex -f 8'

tcprobe reports the resulting .m2v file from cinelerra
as 29.97 fps.  both of these files are fine as far as
I can tell.

the weird part is:

if I then multiplex the audio and the video stream
together with either 'mplex -f 8' or 'tcmplex' and run
tcprobe on the .mpg file generated (to be burned to
DVD), it is reported as 23.97fps! 

The original video is interlaced, and the final video
is also interlaced, so I don't see why it takes the
framerate down...

also, say I export out of cinelerra as any other file
formats (like quicktime), the resulting video is
29.97fps (correct). if I take that video and then run
transcode to generate seperate mpeg2 audio and video
streams, the resulting video file is also 29.97 fps
(correct), but mplex'ing it together with 'mplex -f 8'
or 'tcmplex' results in the same thing: my final .mpg
file reported as 23.97 fps!

the video actually plays fine on the computer, but on
my dvd player it looks like the frames are blended
somehow (motion is consistently jerky). for example,
one shot of someone throwing a ball, if paused, shows
two balls on the screen at once (like its being
duplicated somehow?)   people walking around look all
spastic and jerky.. 

any ideas what might be going wrong? I'd almost guess
it was a bug in mplex or tcmplex, but they've worked
for other stuff fine on this box before...  this seems
like something really obvious I am missing
