The "woven" effect I refer to is most noticeable on plain backgrounds and is like a check pattern made from dark lines forming little slanted squares. It also seems most noticeable in 16:9 format. If I squash the picture to 4:3 format it's not so noticeable but everybody is so tall and thin.

Please bottom or inline post on this list.

Sounds like you are referring to macroblocking, then.  Edit your
recording profiles and modify bitrate and resolution settings to your
liking.

The audio means you have misconfigured your capture settings/mixer.
There is a section on this in the Myth docs at www.mythtv.org:
