Judging Field Order

[joe355]

For a long time I've been looking for a reliable method of judging field order. A few scripts I've tried give mixed results. any tips?

[Roginator]

The TMPGEnc wizard purports to determine field order.

AFAIK there are no reliable automatic methods of determing field order.

Manually, you can use

AssumeTFF()
SeparateFields()

or

AssumeBFF()
SeparateFields()

and see which looks smoother

Just to add a "me too," AssumeTFF().SeparateFields() works great. It will be very obvious which field order is correct--one will have smooth motion, and one will look like its dancing a jig (jumping back and forth).
