Well I tried the various de-interlace settings available in the mythfronted set-up screens. For me the 'kernel' method looks best, but it's pretty subjective, and your mileage might vary. You can also try with XvMC turned on and off. If I remember right using XvMC gave an improvement, but made the On Screen Displays unusable due to extreme flickering of the picture whenever the menus were brought up, so I leave it turned off. Overall I haven't regretted changing from the 350's TV out. It enabled me to play DVD's and use Picture-In-Picture and GOOM and other stuff that the PVR350 couldn't handle in those days (though I believe it can now with the new ivtv drivers). The TV picture quality difference is pretty marginal. At first glance I'd say that the nVidia output looks better - ie a bit sharper and brighter, but the motion issue is definately there and some programmes just don't seem quite right. The other minor issue I have with the nVidia card is that I think I'm having to overscan the picture more than the 350 did, to get rid of the wobbly edges, and from time to time the overscan settings get reset to 0. I've had to assign a button on my remote to restore them. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
