Upper, lower, frame

Hello,

Which format is most appropriate to submit in QT?

Upper field first, lower field first, frame based?

It seems that P5 accept them all, but what the difference?

From what I have read, all HDV interlaced cameras are upper field first.
SD cameras are lower field first.
My Sony FX-1 is an interlaced camera so it's upper field first.
If you select the wrong one it will make the video not look correct or have some flicker.
Again, from what I've read, I never tried it.

Progressive cameras would be "frame" since it has no upper or lower.
