[mythtv-users] Capture resolution for software encoding of PAL video

I'm currently s/w encoding 16:9 PAL video from my cable STB using the RTJPEG codec at a resolution of 720x576 (5:4). Upon TV playback, the video is being stretched back to a 16:9 aspect ratio with a perceived loss of quality vs. video coming directly from the STB.

Is it possible/advantageous to capture at a higher resolution (such as 1024x576, 16:9)?

Cheers,

Mike
