Thanks for this; it neatly answered my request for same
(<URL:http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/dev/375271#375271>.
My display is progressive, not interlaced, but the phantom
progresive-frames issue bedevils all of us. I agree your hack is
probably not ideal for DVD playback (where there really is content
with both interlaced and true progressive frames mixed together,
apparently), but like you I almost never use MythTV for DVDs. Until a
more-comprehensive solution arrives yours will do nicely.
