I don't think it's a good point of view for an mplayer programmer. If 
there's a flag the program should be able to adapt to it. Then you could 
say: we do everything all right, blame the mpeg stream for not setting 
the flag correctly. Automatic choosing of encoding type 
(interlaced/noninterlaced) would be beneficial to both advanced and 
simple users.
