I came across another utility (called ctf or cvt or something) that does
something similar.  I really don't understand much of this, I'm pretty
confused. :-(

Isn't the modeline used by X to decide how to generate the low level video
signal?  How does this affect playback in Myth?  It seems like Myth should
be completely isolated from what is going on at the chip level on the video
card?!?  Of course, I'm pretty ignorant so what do I know.

Also, how do you specify interlace or not?!? (which I see in some
modelines)  Do I need to specify it?

My head hurts... :-)
