Simple question that I have not been able to find a simple answer to after much searching. In the After Effects Output Module, should I export my movie with Lower Field First checked, or since I shot in 24PA, should I not select any field order since it is progressive?

Just curious because I was taught to always do lower field first, but I've never shot progressive, so just wanted to check. Thanks.

No replies. Guess it's a stupid question. Went ahead and didn't select any field order, used AE's Animation codec, and it looks great on my computer. Just worried I might hit some problems when I play it on a TV. Again, my apologies if it's a stupid question. Just hard to wrap your head around all the settings sometimes, especially when you have an extended workflow between FCP, AE, and a DVD Studio Pro.
