You just clock the data in at a rate that generates 29.97 rather than

And what about the sound? Do you raise the pitch by 17% (in itself not
easy, and far from acceptable) or keep the sound running for the original
duration so it lags more and more behind the pictures? It's a ridiculous
idea, and not even the crudest method of standards conversion does it that
way AFAIK.
