DVDxDV and Cinematize both default to encoding at what is called "NTSC
Film" rate -- 23.976 fps. If you check the frame rate of the VOB files
ripped by MtR, you'll see they're still at 29.97 fps. DVDxDV refers to
the as "3:2 Pulldown" -- you'll need to use DVDxDV Pro (or some other
converter) to avoid the pulldown implementation.
