[mythtv-users] 1080i content and xv

Can anybody out there playback 1080i content (captured over Firewire from a
DCT-62xx) to a VGA monitor using xv?  I have tried three different NVidia
driver versions, (7667,7676, and 8174) and all three exhibit slightly
different versions of the same problem.  When playing back 1080i content,
the image is split into two - like having double vision.  It is almost as if
one field is being played on the left side of the frame while the next plays
on the right side.

The problem is duplicated whether I use VLC, mplayer, or MythTV for
playback.  I can get normal playback if I use the " -vo x11" option with
mplayer, but then my CPU can't keep up.

My specs:

- P4 630
- FC4 w/  smp kernel.
- DCT-620x Firewire capture
- old 32MB GeForce3 video card

If anybody has had experience with this problem, any feedback would be
greatly appreciated.  Searching has so far yeilded few results.

Thank You,
Chris
