OBS

It involves displaying 24 frames/second motion picture film on a 30 frames/second (interlaced) television system. One film frame is shown for three television fields and the next frame is shown for two television fields. Thus, two of every five video frames consist of fields that contain information from two different film frames. Those video frames are called interfield frames.
