The NFO must list a reason as to the final decision. � � 7.3.1) It is assumed that the majority of a title contains enough unique � � frames at 30,000/1,001 FPS to warrant a higher framerate. If it � � can be proven IVTC/decimating does not result in any loss of � � unique frames, this is considered a technical flaw. � � 7.4) Native and converted framerates refers to the standard in which the � � video was produced. � � 7.4.1) NTSC produced video is native to NTSC. � � 7.4.2) PAL produced video is native to PAL. � � 7.4.3) NTSC produced video that is broadcast in PAL is considered as � � converted video. � � 7.4.4) PAL produced video that is broadcast in NTSC is considered as � � converted video. � � 7.5) Converted video that has significant abnormalities (e.g. blended � � frames, jerky playback due to missing or duplicate frames) due to � � the conversion and cannot be reversed to the native format must be � � tagged as CONVERT. � � 7.5.1) Converted video which does not have significant abnormalities do � � not require the CONVERT tag and must not be nuked for the � � conversion. � � 7.6) Dupes based on framerate are not allowed, use INTERNAL. � � � � 8) [ Audio ] � � 8.1) Segmented encoding is not allowed. � � 8.2) VBR AAC LC (Low Complexity) must be used. � � 8.2.1) Apple/QAAC, FDK-AAC or Nero must be used. � � 8.2.1.1) Any other AAC encoders (e.g. FFmpeg, FAAC, MEncoder) are not � � allowed. � � 8.2.2) Quality based VBR encoding must be used, targeted or constrained � � VBR must not be used.
