My TV does everything for me automagically in hardware. :-)

Deinterlacing a 1080i signal for display at 1080p is easier than  
doing it for a 720p display, since you don't have to scale the video  
at all. I dunno the specifics of exactly what's happening under the  
hood on my TV, but I get absolutely zero interlace artifacts on 1080i  
content. I do see some minor interlace artifacts on 480i stuff, but  
only upon very close inspection (nose near the screen), and even  
then, they aren't bad. My ASSumption is that the TV just has a really  
good deinterlace filter in it. Maybe I should read my TV's manual one  
of these days to figure out exactly what's going on... ;-)
