Reverse Telecine Dialog

You use the Reverse Telecine dialog to convert NTSC 3:2 pull-down video or 2:3:3:2
pul-down video to 24 frames per second (fps).

To open the Reverse Telecine dialog, do one of the following:

m

Click Rev Telecine in the Clip window.

m

Choose Clip > Reverse Telecine (available only when the Clip window is open).

See “

Reversing the Telecine Pull-Down

” on page 113 for details on using this function.

There is also a simplified form of the Reverse Telecine dialog that appears if the clip or
clips were captured from a DV camcorder that shoots 24P, such as the Panasonic
AG-DVX100 camcorder. These clips have the pull-down cadence (pattern) information
embedded in a way that Cinema Tools can read, so if it detects this cadence information,
the automated reverse telecine dialog appears. See “

Removing 2:3:3:2 or 2:3:2:3 Pull-

Down With Cinema Tools

” on page 190 for details.
