[mythtv-users] Bad playback from 5200

[Jack McGee]

Sync to VBlank is checked when I see this problem.  I wouldn't call it 
blockiness, I work with digital videotape formats at work, D9 and DV, 
and I see blockiness there, it literally turns portions of the screen 
into small blocks with an average of what they contain.  I have full 
information on the screen, no blocks, just horizontal bands are delayed 
with respect to the rest of the screen.
