Isn't the point of inverse-telecine 'ing to end up with a stream that has the smoothest playback on the largest number of devices? Including devices that are capable of 24fps playback? And, isn't the size difference just a nice confirmation that a ~30 fps telecined stream has approximately the same information content as the 24fps original stream? -Jean ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
