NTSC 23,97 3:2 flag - is this correct?

Hi!

I got a movie recorded in 25 fps that I want to convert to NTSC 23,97 with 3:2 flag in Final Cut (as far as I understand the 2:3 flag will make it play correct in NTSC DVD)

How do I do this. What I done is to:

1) Easy Setup = DV NTSC 23.98

2) dragged the mov file from the browser into the timeline and did select no on change settings to match the clip

3) anti alised the clip (it went blurry and antialising helped)

My question is:

Ive understood that NTSC is:
720x480/29.97fps or 23,98fps with 3:2 flag

Mine is now in 23,98 but how do I now if I got the 3:2 pull down flag???

Im using this settings on the clip:

does that look correct? Im thinking mainly on the NTSC DV 3:2. does that mean that Ive got the pull down flag and that it will play correct in a NTSC DVD?

thanks

Perik
