[Avid-L2] Drop Frame DPX?

 

With all the fun things I'm learning about 4K and DPX exports from Avid I just had a thought about Drop Frame in a DPX world.  So far all my 4K is 23.976 so there is no Drop Frame issues.  I export basing the frame count on sequence time code which is very helpful when making patch fixes etc... 

I haven't tried this but does anyone know if I was working in a 4K project with 29.97 frame rate where drop frame was used.  If I export a DPX with frame count based on time code what happens at the drop frames?  Would the break in sequential numbers cause the DPX to burp?  I know it is possible to just have the frame count ascend and ignore time code but where's the fun in that.  Basing the frame count on time code is really helpful.  Anybody know if a DPX with frame count based on drop frame time code would work correctly?
