As far as I can tell, you can't. I took a look at the metadata for several movies of varying frame rates, and none of them had a metadata entry for frame rate. Also, if you look at the "Other" criteria in a Find window, there is no entry for frame rate. It looks like the only way you could do this would be to enter the frame rate for each movie in the Finder's Spotlight Comments field yourself. Aside from being tedious, these comments can easily go missing and I wouldn't trust them for anything important (they are not stored as part of the file). I took a look at Automator to see if there might be something useful there, since QuickTime Player does know what the frame rate is, but didn't see any action involving the property. It MIGHT be possible to do something with an Applescript, but afraid I don't know enough about that to be helpful. You might check in the Applescript forum:

and see if anyone could help you create an Applescript that would identify movies by frame rate.
