It would be fantastic, if one could set a preference for the interpretation during import. For the Fields, the pixel aspect ration and the color managment.
Not sure what benefit there would be over the current footage interpretation mechanisms and the default interpretation rules, all of which can already be changed and edited in multiple ways. Adding yet another (potentially even more confusing) method feels redundant to me.
@Mylenium well, for one, I use image sequences constantly. having to change the interpretation of every one every time is absolutely abysmal. I'd rather it just brought me into the interpret menu for every image sequence because even something terrible like that would reduce the clicks and menu searching by like 60%.
having a little page like the effects dock always up so I could just change interpret settings, then import, then change, and import, would be ideal. keep it simple stupid.
