Thanks for that suggestion.  I have increased the AVSync2 increment to 4 
ms and selected the low quality deinterlace options, and the drift does 
seem to have gone away.

I had gone to the 1 ms correction setting because the reported timing 
StdDEv seems to track this value.  Perhaps the lower setting prevents 
tracking of the actual sync.  There are still reports of frame dropping, 
and the deinterlacer might not be good enough...
