[mythtv] Interlaced vs. Progressive

[David Asher]

Ok, I forgot the names for the two were very similar. 

In that case I think I am using chromakeying.  I'm using XV with a 
Nvidia 5200, no twinview.  I definitely don't get the "Couldn't get the 
color key color" message.

Also, I'm using bob deinterlace.  So it sounds like you're saying I 
should need to set needrepaint on enable/disable of deinterlacing -- but 
that's what is causing the flashing.  The needrepaint variable forces a 
DrawUnusedRects with sync off...  could it be opengl vsync mixed with 
sync off that's hurting me?

Hmmm... not sure what my next step here should be.

David.

PS. I apologize about the HTML.  I've tried to turn off HTML, let me 
know if I didn't get it right.
