I've been thinking that a nice future feature of MythTV would be to
change output resolutions (with XF86VidMode or whatever) depending on
content type.  Of course, whether someone would want to do this would
depend on the quality of the output device and whatever, but that would
theoretically always give you the best output.

I suspect the TV I want to get probably has a much better deinterlacer
than MythTV does, which is one reason why I've been thinking about it..
