[mythtv-users] is it really 29.97 fps or 24 fps?

Yeah, that makes sense, somewhat. But why then when stepping through a
frame a time with either mplayer or mythfrontend, can I not see the
evidence of the telecining? Not a single frame looks interlaced and
with mplayer, it even displays 24 frames per second -- I can count 24,
single stepping through them.
I am aware, yes, of mplayer's ability to analyse the mpeg header to
determine if a 29.9 fps stream really is 24 fps (as in the case of
movies on DVDs) and play at 24 fps, but mplayer usually tells you when
it's doing that and I don't see any of those tell-tale signs with this
stream.
