I seem to have some success. The display says it is recieveing 1080i now 
at least, I am certainly not in sync somewhere. I get vertically shifted 
ghosts (digital crisp ghosts, not the fuzzy analog kind ;)

Text is unreadable (like the interlacing is off by 5 lines)

So I am assuming this is a matter of tweaking the numbers, and that I can 
play with.

Thanks for the help! :)

Nick
