Hey all,

Quick question ... I want to convert my HDV 24F .m2t files into DVCPro50 for SD editing. I am using MPEG Streamclip to do this ... does anyone know what I should set the field order for DVCPro50 to - upper or lower?

I believe HDV is an "upper" codec, but what is DVCPro50?

Pretty sure DV50 is lower. Try it on a short clip, if it doesn't work try upper.

24F is a progressive format, so it doesn't have a field order, he 24p is decoded without pulldown.
