720p24 stored in 60p wrapper or as straight 24 fps?
This has probably been discussed before, but does DVCPRO HD record 720p24 in a 60p wrapper using repeat flags (storing 24 actual frames) or as straight 24 fps video?

Depends whether you are store data on tape or P2. 720p24 is stored as 60 frames on tape, with the timecode users bits setting which frame is active, this is not an efficient way to store data, but it allows the tape to run at a fixed bit-rate. On P2 in 720p mode only the active frames are stored, this is a good upgrade. In 1080 mode the P2 works like the tape, although the effeciency losses are not as great.

Yes, in a VariCam. You asked about DVCPRO-HD not about the HXV-200.
