I've got some 30 Frame progressive footage that is 2:2:2:4 cadence. I transcoded to DNxHR HQX in a 30P Avid project. I'm cutting the footage into a 23.976 UHD timeline and then using the motion adapter promoted to set it to 100% so I get a frame for frame playback but the 2:2:2:4 cadence becomes more prominent given it playing 25% slower. I played with the progressive repeat settings in the motion effects editor but I don't seem to achieving the pulldown removal I want. I've tried to use after effects playing around with interpret footage but that only seems to deal with 2:3 or advanced pulldown. I found a script thing that becomes an after effects effect for duplicate frame removal but I'm not versed in AE. Am I missing something in how Avid deals with 2:2:2:4 footage in the motion effects editor? I had never noticed the option of repeat frame in the pull down menus ot the motion effects editor before, but then I never looked for them before.
I'd really like to just take the original file and remove the duplicate progressive frame that happens every 5th frame. Any suggestions?
