Cinema Tools interlaced first frame after reverse telecine?

Okay so I shot the footage in 24p advanced on a dvx100b. I batch reverse telecined in cinema tools. It worked fine except for the first frame of some of the final reverse telecined files. Only on some of the files (randomly) the first frame is interlaced. This only happened to some of the files and it is not really a big deal because there is nothing important usually in the first frame but it is a little worrying. Could it be because I didnt really pay attention to which of the 5 frame set (0-5/A-D frames where frame 3/C is the interlaced frame in 24p advanced) was captured as the first frame during capturing? I have heard that you must capture the 0/A frame as the first frame for reverse telecining/advanced pulldown removal to work. Is this true. Even if so, the whole clip other than the first frame is still fine so, any ideas?
 
:) only 9 minutes passed since you started this thread. not getting an immediate response is normal. you know what else is normal? the first frame being interlaced. its because that clip doesn't have another field to combine with, unlike the others.
 
Oh okay that makes sense. Thanks for the answer. And by the way, I actually started the thread 2 days and 9 minutes before your post. The date is important. Lol. :happy:
