I've noticed that MythTV is quick to trust the source material's
indication of progressive vs. interlaced frames.  If your HD broadcaster
is sending progressive-marked frames in a 1080i broadcast, Myth switches
off deinterlacing for that frame.  Even though it's probably wrong.  You
can fix for the duration of that recording by using the OSD menu to
select Video Scan -> Interlaced.
