If you're using your PVR-350's on-board decoder then you don't need to 
de-interlace, and the de-interlace settings you choose will have no effect.  
The decoder handles everything for you (well, if I'm not mistaken, it's not 
that it's doing all this fancy stuff on the board rather than just feeding 
the signal PROPERLY to the TV).
