AW: [mythtv-users] nvidia new drivers hdtv/interlacing, any benefit for us non HDTV people?

[Flo]

The problem is, TV-Out isnt interlaced, so real interlace modes on Tvout
would be really helpfull. And i hoped that this would be the case on the new
drivers.

I think you should see

#75514

which explains that this isn't true.

The TV out of your video card should be interlaced anyway; your TV requires
it. The interlaced modes would only affect VGA or DVI output.

I did try a 50 Hz interlaced mode with the new driver and there was no
obvious difference at all. (I'm using PAL output because I'm in
Australia.)
