Yes, infact all the packages I've used so far only display a single field
during the preview/editing stage. During capture I also only get a single 
field preview display, so I cant actually watch or edit anything in actual 
3D on screen (unless it anaglyph of course ;)

I assume you mean that the even-lines becomes the odd-lines etc, which has 
the effect of making the video psuedo in 3D (and flickery in 2D). For 
digital encoding there is ususally an option in the encoding software to 
set the dominance.
