Abstract
A system and method for efficiently performing an inverse telecine procedure includes an inverse telecine module that converts input frames of video information into corresponding output frames by applying an inverse telecine policy to the input frames. A motion statistics generator then calculates motion statistics results corresponding to the output frames. A synchronizer module then compares the motion statistics results to entries in a synchronization table for determining whether the inverse telecine procedure is correctly synchronized. The synchronizer module may then reposition a current start boundary of the inverse telecine procedure whenever the inverse telecine procedure is not correctly synchronized.
