Because of the unpredictable nature of the processing when
reversing the telecine, segmented encoding does not work as
efficiently as it does when reverse telecine is not being used.
If you pause the transcoding process, the transcode must
start from the beginning when you restart it.
When film is telecined to NTSC video, it has a constant cadence.
This means that the 3:2 pattern is consistent and uninterrupted.
Itās relatively easy to remove the telecine from a constant-

If you take these telecined clips and edit them as NTSC video, the
result is a final video file that has a broken cadence with an
inconsistent 3:2 pattern. Itās much more difficult to remove the
telecine from such a clip because you have to constantly verify
the cadence to make sure you donāt inadvertently choose
