I don't actually run X at 720x480, I run it at 800x600. My PVR-250  
records at 720x480. I tried getting X to work at 720x480 with a special  
modeline and, while it worked, it was pretty glitchy. Here is my  
Monitors section in case you want to try it out:

Section "Monitor"
         Identifier   "TV"
         VendorName   "Monitor Vendor"
         ModelName    "Monitor Model"
         HorizSync    30-70
         VertRefresh  50-160
         Option       "DPMS" "no"

         ModeLine "720x480" 26.7 720 736 808 896 480 481 484 497
