yes and no. material that is truly 1080 24 fps progressive or interlace is 
support. However, we do not have anything yet to do the reverse pulldown 
properly. I have some 1080 60Hz samples, and on brief analysis, the pattern 
of interlaced vs. progressive frames seems very odd. I not sure whether to 
call it 60i or 24p because actually its neither, and I do not know who to 
blame for the confusing terminology. When we can do the pulldown properly, 
then 24 fps is no problem. I do not have a 50 Hz with pulldown stream; is 
that what European cameras provide?

My samples are from this camera, and I had a chance to test it recently with 
dvgrab and a little bit so far with ffmpeg+mlt. It's a very cool camera.
