libx264 was by far the most advanced encoder until a very short
time ago and is still among the best encoders available, of course
it supports interlaced encoding, as explicitly stated above.

It does not support field-encoding but as said, this - according
to the x264 developers - doesn't help anyway.
(The H.264 specification identifies two different methods for
encoding interlaced video.)
