Is that so?

First of all, we need to decide about what kind of computer generation
we are talking exactly?

Is it generating a point-in-time picture for each frame start time?
Assuming generated video of a situation where visual events that would start
at 10ms, disappear after a duration of 20ms and repeat that every 40ms.
These things would never be visible in the EU video, but in the US 
video.

You mentioned "sampling", so I guess you mean that each frame would represent 
the appearance averaged over the frame duration, right?
Of course that's a much more correct way to reflect reality.

Enlightened by this, let's go back to to your example. The EU frame has a
duration of 40ms, the US frame 33.3ms. The US frame start 0.02ms later and 
is fully included in the duration of the EU frame. 

If the US-to-EU conversion (or other direction) has been done in a natural 
way without human intervention and explicit cutting, then the example is
busted once another time.

Want I can't precisely answer (but wondering) , is whether it 
would even pe possible to have single audio stream in the same container
that could work with both video..?

Thanks,
