[mythtv] Mythtv sets sys interlace variable to 0 on Live TV

[roger]

Does anybody know the location in the code where this is executed? ie.
function used?

I just found out, Mythtv likes to reset my /sys interlace variable to 0
(deactivating interlacing) as "Live TV" is about to be played.

>From briefly looking over the Mythtv gui settings, there is no setting
for activating interlacing.  A user can only activate Deinterlacing
within the menus.

I need Mythtv to either: 
a) keep interlacing enabled or 
b) include a setting to enable it.

> Another option I have, activating interlacing on my device:
> # echo 1 > /sys/class/pvrusb2/sn-7435104/ctl_interlace/cur_val
> 
> At this point, I'm seeing Mythtv's cpu usage further drop down to an
> overall ~30-48%.  (Top shows mythfronted drop to ~20%.)

(fyi: I'm using the pvrusb2 module with a Hauppgauge Wintv PVR USB2
device.)
