[mythtv-users] Svideo Tearing

While mplayer SD video as viewed on my CRT is excellent, I get
tearing during fast pans in clone mode viewing SD video through
svideo-out on a standard TV. I have the same results with both a
GeForce FX 5500 and GeForce FX 6200. I have tried repeatedly to get
a single response from the Nvidia support forum but have been
unsuccessful to date. I have a WinTV PVR 500 capture card and the
mpg files it generates are excellent. This has been proven by
watching the video on a Windows box using Windows Media Player and a
Samba mount of the file.
I need to demonstrate to my spouse that my MythTV investment is
worthwhile. The tearing annoys her and while the video quality on a
PC is excellent, watching shows using Tapeworm on her PC will not cut
it for her. I am running all the most recent versions of
MythTV. Any help would be most appreciated.
My xorg.conf and .nvidia-settings-rc files are listed below. I am
running FC5, 2111 kernel, and the 8756 nvidia driver.

# Option "Xleds" "1 2 3"
# To disable the XKEYBOARD extension, uncomment XkbDisable.
# Option "XkbDisable"
# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the
# lines below (which are the defaults). For example, for a non-U.S.
# keyboard, you will probably want to use:
# Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
# Option "XkbModel" "microsoft"
#
# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# or:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
#
# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
# control keys, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:swapcaps"
# Or if you just want both to be control, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:nocaps"
