Not really a brief subject:

But the short answer is that PAL DV is the same as NTSC DV: Lower (Even) field dominant.
PAL D1 is Upper field dominant.
NTSC D1 is Lower field dominant.
The nomenclature of ODD and EVEN is troublesome because in some specifications the first (top) line is referred to as line 0 and in other specifications the same line is referred to as line 1. Thus ODD and EVEN are poor names for fields.
However in Apple’s FCS world EVEN is always the same as LOWER which is always the same as BOTTOM.
Good luck.
Tom
