[Avid-L2] Re: One more HVX900 Q

FCP was unable to remove a field in firewire capture, hence "advanced" pulldown. Avid came out with the ability to actually remove fields in firewire capture. It was an impressive feat at the time.

I wasn't sure if Avid had an easier time removing pulldown from Advanced or Normal Pulldown. I always told people to use Advanced only if they are capturing with firewire, but I recall (I forget whether Avid or FCP) removes the PD from Advanced easier than Normal when you use the Panny 1080i 23.98 (23.98 over 60).
