Neither is "better"; it's just more correct. the fourcc is supposed to
identify which encoder produced the video. in the past lavc
masqueraded as 'DIVX' to get popular windows crap to play its files,
but that caused problems if advanced mpeg4 features not supported by
divx were used during encoding, so now that everyone has ffdshow
anyway we decided to use a correct fourcc.

OK, I see. tfields should auto-detect the field order as long as it's
the first filter in the chain, but it might fail to do so for dv (this
is a bug in the dv decoder, not tfields, if it fails to indicate the
field order). try using -vf flip,tfields=4,flip and see if that fixes
the problem. it will be slower to encode, but it should work.
