Pulldown is the process of converting film to video. For 525/59.94 systems (NTSC-style), 3:2 pulldown is where you amortize 24fps film material over your 59.94fps output. Try searching google for '3:2 pulldown' or 'inverse telecine'. Reversing this process involves identifying field repeat patterns and editing the frames I output to represent the original 24fps stream. My algorithm is two-pass, and I handle phase transitions better than anything else I can find. Yay! -- Billy Biggs vektor@xxxxxxxxxxxx
