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 -Dom p.s. please CC me replies, I'm not subscribed ===== Dominic C.
