Hello,

Of course the doc does not answer the really important question if Sony DCR-PC5 is progressive or interleased device and if interleaeced which field comes first. In other words how does it record the video on its miniDV tape and then transfer it out of the firewire interface? I need to know this since after the video is captured onto an avi file using Premiere, all encoders want to know if the source is progressive or interleaced? And if its NOT progressive I need to specify which field is first?

Will appreciate any ideas about my Sony cam
