The capture hardware I use has bottom field first for everything not
just the "DV" family of codecs.
So the problem could be that the tag is just getting (arbitrarily)
set wrong in Cinelerra.

Are you 100% certain of this? DV is always bottom field first - that
is true for 625line (PAL)) or 525line NTSC. I have a MJPEG sample
sent to me from a fellow in Austria and that file is top field first
(came from either a DC10 or DC30 - I forget which).
(technically PAL and NTSC are color modulation schemes but are
overloaded to mean 625 line and 525 line video systems - it is possible
to, like in Brazil, have a 525 line system with PAL color - it's
PAL/M as I recall)
But as far as I know "PAL" can have either field order - the choice
is made at acquisition time by the hardware being used.

No, it probably isn't but it was an interesting thread of discussion.

Yes, that's the one I was thinking of.

And that would be the one I did not know about ;)
Thank you for the information and the clarification. I was wondering
if the "heroinewarrior" had suddenly become reachable ;)
Cheers,
