DGpulldown only makes BFF streams...?

...or am i doing it wrong?

it's definitely not a big deal, i was just surprised that some m2v's i'd made seemed to come into avisynth as bottom-field first.

i'm not sure if this it the right forum for DGpulldown (it's not an encoder after all), but it seemed the obvious place for it in lieu of not having a home for it here :).

The way it is designed and coded is that the field order to use is determined from the field order of the input file. The code looks for the first picture coding extension and then reads the TFF flag.

So, is the designed operation not what you are seeing?

aah, that must be it. i encoded progressive, the encoder must have written bff in the stream. cool, thanks.
