[FFmpeg-user] ffmpeg architecture question #2

[Mark Filipak]

Hello,

I've been told that, for soft telecined video

|<--------------------------1/6s-------------------------->|
[A/a__________][B/b__________][C/c__________][D/d__________] source

  the decoder is fully compliant and therefore outputs 30fps

|<--------------------------1/6s-------------------------->|
[A/a__________][B/b__________][C/c__________][D/d__________] source
[A/a_______][B/b_______][B/c_______][C/d_______][D/d_______] hard telecine

I've also been told that the 30fps is interlaced (which I found surprising)

|<--------------------------1/6s-------------------------->|
[A/a__________][B/b__________][C/c__________][D/d__________] source
[A/a_______][B/b_______][B/c_______][C/d_______][D/d_______] hard telecine
[A/-_][-/a_][B/-_][-/b_][B/-_][-/c_][C/-_][-/d_][D/-_][-/d_] i30, TFF

Is this correct so far?

Thanks,
Mark.
