I think that this is the issue. I looked into the current settings of my  
camcorder and noticed that it was indeed set to 1440x1080 and, more  
importantly, to 60 FPS interlaced. I would like that shoot at 1920x1080,  
and that's easy to change in my camcorder. However, what should I use for  
FPS? I can do 30p, 24p, plus some other 24p that is said to be  
for "cinematic effect" (whatever that means.) My inclination would be to do  
30p but, are there any advantages to doing 24p instead?

Any ideas on how to get MythTV to do the right thing for these particular  
videos?
