I'm having trouble encoding Star Trek: Voyager. Why? As I understand it the CG (ships etc) have a different frame rate than the live action. When I play it, the CG sections "skips". I am using Apple TV default in handbrake with deinterlancing. Fps same as source (25). Has anyone encountered and solved this problem?
Got a tip for us?

I think the real issue here is that you want to encode one of the worst-written serial shows in history.

That might be, but the doctor is awesome. =)
The same problem occurs with Star Trek Deep Space 9. Like Dynaflash said, turn on VFR and it'll solve the problem.
Im actually burning this series to my hard drive as we speak. I havent had any problems, however Im just burning the episodes themselves. Ive got TOS and TNG burned, Im working on STV, as well as DS9, and I will think about enterprise...would have to buy that series though...
you should get the animated series as well. it is pretty fun. i wish i had ds9 dvds and the first 4 seasons of voyager so i could have everything in itunes!
I am having a similar issue with ST:TNG, some sections seem to have faster movement than others. Would the VFR work for this as well?
PcBgone, you said that you have already ripped ST:TNG and TOS, what settings did you use? I have ripped all with MTR just need to set a queue in HB to encode them all (I had finished season 1 and 2 of TNG before I realized the issue with the AppleTV preset and this series and have been trying to fix it).
I simply used the AppleTv preset, and let it go. No other settings were changed, havent noticed any problems with them, with the exception of a few episodes I had to reburn from TOS, it came up as an unreadable unix file, but reburning it did fixed.
I will admit I didnt go back and watch through them all. Only the first few that I ripped..maybe I should go back and check the others.
