- 2:2 pulldown
Also called telecine, 2:2 pulldown is the process used to convert motion picture movie film to PAL interlaced video. Each frame of film is converted into two interlaced video frames. This is the process that enables you to view captured motion pictures on standard televisions and video electronics. See anamorphic widescreen.
- 2:3 pulldown
Also called inverse telecine, 2:3 pulldown is a method of converting a 24 frame per second film into 59.94 field per second NTSC. It does not apply to films encoded for PAL. It works by showing every second frame for three fields, resulting in a frame-to-field pattern of 2-3-2-3-2-3. See anamorphic widescreen.
