I don't mind at all. Currently my focus was elsewhere...

To be honest, I don't know if user has a free choice to select same or
different destination (capture) buffer for another field. I never tested it and
I'm not sure how to test it with ffmpeg. HW deinterlacing cores on Allwinner
SoCs support only interleaved fields as a input, that's why I never though
about separate fields.
