[mythtv-users] PBS interlacing not working - Was: Cyberchase and de-interlacing

[Justin The Cynical]

Sorry for not replying sooner/following up on a older thread, but I had 
the opportunity to look at the PBS recordings on my Mythbuntu system and 
it's doing similar.  Anything from PBS in general is not deinterlacing. 
  In fact, per the logs, the whole system is kinda weird on recordings 
from the SD side of PBS.  I'll need to look at other SD sources (IIRC, 
there is one or two other SD only channels in my area).

I tried setting up an entry in the playback settings for anything below 
720 to use a deinterlacer, but it always seems to have this problem.  HD 
programs look just fine (I can't see any combing) but PBS stuff...  It's 
painfully obvious that it's not deinterlacing.  I'm not using XvMC on 
the system, video card is a NVidia 7300 with a C2D 8400, DVI to HDMI 
driving my Sammy.

Actually, looking at the logs, there seems to be something more going on 
as well...
