    Graig,
    You are talking about two “last generation” formats-codecs that may have some kind of metadata readable by FC. Also two formats that are not really “captured” but transfered from the camera to your HD.
    When capturing FC only knows about the field order of the footage because you are setting it in the Capture Preset. Is not FC who knows it, but you.
    The same happens about the aspect of the footage. FC only know that a movie is Anamorphic if you check it as Anamorphic on capture, or you check it in the Browser on importing.

    People are getting off on a far tangent.

    WMV HD and H264 MOV are being read as INTERLACED when they are not. Regardless of source, the resultant file is Progressive as encoded. As far as I know there is NO PSF.

    Gary if you believe a source encoded to another codec such as WMV or H264 MOV and set to deinterlace remains PSF, please show me somewhere how that occurs.

    Especially in one case where the source (maybe PSF?) does show as Progressive in FCP but the encoded WMV HD file shows as Interlace according to FCP.
