As a note, if you are needing to do this to a edited sequence it can only work if the pulldown was applied after the sequence was cut together, so only if the pulldown is applied on the output. If the pulldown was applied during original acquisition or during a transcode process then the pulldown cadence won't be steady. It will shift from 0/5 to 1/6 to 2/7 and so forth as you come across edit events. So the process I wrote about only works when the cadence is steady, like on camera source or when applied to the output of the sequence.
