The problem lies in DVDs that are recorded 29.97 interlaced. There seems to be no way to get this type of disk to playback smoothly on a television.
Aspect 1.5 (which I generally use because aspect 4:3 seems to be broken, it comes out too tall) seems to invoke a bit of scaling which obviously breaks the interlace. Aspect 4:3 does not show interlacing problems, but the motion is all jerky. This shouldn't be since I'm playing the disk back on an NTSC television.
