Hi,
I have a question. I recently made a movie (720x576 25fps) and transferred on to a BetaSP PAL and sent it to the client. The client sent the tape to a production company and they were told that the field on the first part of the movie is different from the second part of the movie. Because of that they suggested that I render the movie again to fix the problem, then put it on to the tape again. There is a countdown in the beginning of the movie and I suppose that what they are referring to as first part of the movie. The movie was rendered in After Effects and the countdown movie and the rest were two separate files before the rendering in AE.
I have no idea what they mean by "field order". All I did was to send the complete movie in QT to postpro house to transfer it to the tape. Can anyone please tell me what the "field order" is?
Thanks bunch in advance,
Y

From our 'Glossary':
Field
In an interlaced video a field is 1/2 of a complete picture (Frame) consisting of the even or odd scanlines in the frame. Usually each field is labeled ie. Field A and Field B. When working with interlaced video it is important to note the Field Order (if Field A comes before Field B in the video stream) especially when encoding. If you notice flicker after encoding you will want to change the field order in the encoding template and reencode.
