2-3 pull down function
This is a conversion method for ensuring the coordination of 30 fps/60-field NTSC signals with 24 fps films when
converting regular movies and other film sources into video signals. The first frame of the film is converted into the
equivalent of 2 fields and the second frame into the equivalent of 3 fields, and the resulting 5-field format for every 2 film
frames is repeated so that 24 frames are converted into 60 fields. DVD players which support a progressive output
capability can detect this 2-3 pull-down processing information and reproduce the 24 original frames. However, a TV
monitor which supports the progressive system must be used for playback.
