[mythtv-users] Better looking playback?

[MacNean Tyrrell]

I have a nvidia geforce 5200, using svideo out.  Mythtv looks sharp and very nice looking.  However playback is still not that great.  Not really sharp like the menu.  I've played with the XV picture color controls, and tried kernel, bob, and liner deinterlacing techniques and nothing looks as sharp as that.  Is it because it's deinterlacing the video?  or because of the ivtv driver for the 2 pvr 250's i have? 
I've seen 5200 with dvi outs (like this, but this is 5500, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814130197), i have a 52" lg dlp tv with dvi input, my cable and my dvd player go to the 2 composite inputs, would getting this video card could i then run it in progressive so no deinterlacing required? And would it look better at all? Also, i've seen some cards that say HDTV out, but it looks like a s video output, can someone explain what this is, and would it help either?
