Best FPS setting for movie recording

I'm struggling to find the right fps settings to record HD (1080p) movies from streaming site. Most Blu-Ray's have a fps of 23.976, but it's not in the settings. And if i record at 24 fps, it's not quite fluid. At 60 fps, the results are excellent, but it's not quite a movie standard. What's the best settings for movie capture ? Thanks

That question has all the appearance of a 'how to bypass DRM' or how do I bootleg some content. The folks with the technical knowledge are unlikely to answer such a question, as that is not the purpose nor intent of OBS
If your use case is not what would be unethical/illegal in US/EU/etc, then clarification of the use case would more likely get a response

I didn't know that capturing a free movie on a legitimate site was illegal ...

It is likely against the licence granted the site to stream the movie for free
You're likely stuck with the FPS = refresh rate of the panel So a pretty big file for what you want to do and end up with
Also, you don't know what the FPS of the file being streamed is
OBS isn't a ripping software and just adds its own variables into the mix
Might be better off with FRAPS or another screen capture program or just Rip your own DVDs and Blu-rays

I think you are not allowed to record movies from streaming sites. I do not know if this streaming sites are Netflix, Amazon Prime or different streaming sites. But in the end, all of this is illegal.
If you need to record movies to watch them later, I would recommend subscriptions for streaming websites. With them, you can watch your favourite movie all the time.
And I have a german website, that I want to recommend to you. There you can search for your favourit movies and see, where you can stream them. Maybe it is helpful for you. For example: My favorite movie is the fault in our stars. And on this website I can see, that I can stream it on Disney+
