I've tried running my setup using the native resolution of the recording
for the TV - which in my case, produced the best looking picture (With
perfect deinterlacing and good "movements").
Though, as the TV would then lower the resolution for SD channels (which I
mainly watch), the OSD looked horrible.

So, in the end - using VDPAU was the best solution for me after all.
The picture is not quite as good as running the native resolution - but it
enabled you to zoom/scretch the picture if needed, and the OSD looks
crystal clear (As the TV is running in 1080p)
