3:2 pull down on RDV-1040 ?

[Joelp]

I can't seem to find any stats on this with the rotel gear. Does anyone know if the the rotel DVD players have 3:2 pull down?

Also, Can anyone tell me what is so great about it, and why i need it, or why it's just another gimmick,

thanks

pretty much all modern DVD players made in the last few years have progressive scan outputs with 3:2 pull down incl the Rotel's.

Read this tutorial to help explain the whole process.

As explained in you link, 3:2 pulldown is the technique used to transfer film stock to video (for NTSC 60 Hz, for PAL 50 Hz 2:2 pulldown is used)
This is independent of the progressive scan output.

Sorry I edited my post to make it more clear.
