Yep, this is plenty of detail... unfortunately I can't see anything
wrong. I would definetly get xine or mplayer and play one of the .nuv
recorded files, first in your monitor and then on your tv. I would
suspect that the monitor would come out ok and the tv will look fuzzy.
If not then I would suspect there's a problem with myth.
If you do get the good-on-monitor, fuzzy-on-tv result above then you
would need to check your XF??Config file. How is that setup? I have a
nvidia card so I would not know how to set up yours.
