Yes. For region 1 DVDs, the *only* legal encoding is 60i. There are
various geometries allowed, but *all* require 30 interlaced frames per
second (i.e., 60 interlaced fields per second). For some other regions,
50i is the only legal rate.

No, you just can't read.

Based on this, you also don't understand what any of what I have said
means.

Perhaps you could close your mouth for once and learn to do actual
research, instead of only being able to skim references that other people
must spoonfeed you.

As we know by now, your assurances in *anything* technical are worthless.

There is *no* "work" involved. The MPEG-2 decoder merely takes the next
field (NOT "frame") and outputs it. If that field is flagged to be the
same as the previous matching field (odd or even), then it outputs the
same thing as it did 1/30th of a second ago. There is *no* extra work
involved, as material encoded without repeat field flags is handled in
*exactly* the same way. Thus, the player is not performing "pulldown"
of any kind...that was already done in the encoding.
