Are you using the "nvidia" driver or the open source "nv" driver? I'm
wondering if nv might give both fields. I think you lose the
capability to do xvmc though, but regular 2d acceleration is supposed
to be good. I can't give up on this, the output from this device is
better than anything I've seen before.
You have tained me... I was blissfully ignorant before, but now I
suspect you're right. The text is crisp and sharp with both fields, but
when I pause the video on motion I can't detect interlaced jitter. Once
upon a time (back in the rage 128 days, I think), I could *definately* see
both fields.
I may try 'nv' rather than 'nvidia'. I might also go back to the
ATI card. I'm not doing anything more than SDTV on a PIII-800, so it's
got enough poop to do it. I just hope the interlace Xv bug in the r128
driver has been fixed since I dealt with it last time. The problem with
*it* was it doubled the fields or something, so it would only play the top
half of the video (but play it full-screen). I had to use the gatos
driver to make it go.
Argh!
