Cory,
It looks like only the fields scaled by xv are the problem. I can
immediately tell I'm only getting half res because the SciFi channel
logo is blocky. I just read a few comments on the nvidia forum that
confirm this behavior (as well as nvidias unresponsiveness to fix it).
If you're getting full resolution, it could be because you're using a
440, although I read that those were supposed to be affected as well.
I'm currently experimenting with an old g400 I had, which might be
good enough.
I looked at it briefly last night... enough to put some doubt into
my previous statement. All I had was a crappy capture from cable, so I'll
try it with a higher-quality source and verify. It appears you may be
right and I never noticed. I guess I'm not that discerning!
Actually, I've always noticed a softness associated with the
PVR-250 captures. The quality has *always* looked better watching cable
right from the TV, rather than captured via the mythbox. Changing
capture resolution, bitrate, DNR settings, etc, etc doesn't help. Bottom
line is the PVR-250 captures at most about 300-350 lines of resolution is
all.
