Unfortunately for me, I need to Bob deinterlace -
ESPN/ESPN2 have fast scrolling tickers, and if I use
anything but Bob, they are very jerky (and hard on the
eyes).

Now, if you use XvMC, you might not have to
deinterlace, I haven't really played around with that
because I've had nothing but problems with XvMC on
nVidia cards (though it seemed to work on my Epia back
in the MythTV 0.17(?) days).

Now that I'm looking to go HDTV, I may need to use
XvMC in MythTV, since just playing some HD clips that
I got from work caused terrible jerkiness on my
Athlon64 3200+ (in 32-bit mode) with bob deinterlacing
(no XvMC).
