If the episode was accelerated, isn't that usually done by deleting frames and, if so, wouldn't deleting even more frames be a bad thing?

If a movie that has been telecined was sped up, I'd suspect that this would be done by removing some of the pulldown fields. If so, the correct thing would be to create a TDeicimate Cycle/CycleR ratio that would eliminate fewer than the normal number of fields (it would be a LOT more than 1 out of 10, as shown in post #1).

You'd also need to determine what needs to be done to the audio.
