    Change framerate (telecine pulldown) during export

    Elliott B. Community Member

      When exporting a clip using a different frame rate, what method is used to convert frame rates?  I don't see any way to specify this in export settings.  For example,

      I have an XDCAM EX clip at 23.98p.  I want to export as DNxHD 220X 59.94i.  I export using the MXF DNx 220X 1080i preset.  When I open the resulting file in Premiere, it appears to have one duplicated frame every 5 frames.  This is not good.  But if I open the MXF in DaVinci Resolve, it has a normal 3:2 pattern.  I'm monitoring with a Decklink SDI, so I can see the interlacing jitter.

      There are several ways to change framerate — 2:3 pulldown, or 2:3:3:2 pulldown, or frame blending, etc.  Which is used by Premiere?
