+@item t
+Capture field order top-first, transfer bottom-first.
+Filter will delay the bottom field.

+@item b
+Capture field order bottom-first, transfer top-first.
+Filter will delay the top field.

+@item p
+Capture and transfer with the same field order. This mode only exists

+@item a
+Capture field order determined automatically by field flags, transfer
+opposite.
+Filter selects among @samp{t} and @samp{b} modes on a frame by frame
+basis using field flags. If no field information is available,
+then this works just like @samp{u}.
+
+@item u
+Capture unknown or varying, transfer opposite.
+Filter selects among @samp{t} and @samp{b} on a frame by frame basis by
+analyzing the images and selecting the alternative that produces best
+match between the fields.
+
+@item T
+Capture top-first, transfer unknown or varying.
+Filter selects among @samp{t} and @samp{p} using image analysis.
+
+@item B
+Capture bottom-first, transfer unknown or varying.
+Filter selects among @samp{b} and @samp{p} using image analysis.
+
+@item A
+Capture determined by field flags, transfer unknown or varying.
+Filter selects among @samp{t}, @samp{b} and @samp{p} using field flags and
