Yes it often happens in native 1080p 24F/s especially on Blu Ray. Also almost
any original 1080p/24 movie is encoded into 1080i/60 using 3/2 pulldown method
and recreated back to 1080p/24 in the TV without loss. The 1080p/24 is
converted to 1080p/60 or 1080p/120 for display. The 1080p/120 of course looks
much better.
