(I'm a MythTV newbie, so maybe I'm just missing something in the
config. But, anyway, here is my observation so far.)
I have noticed similar issues on my ATSC / QAM MythTV box. When
deinterlacing is on, I get weird effects on the OSD. I also see
effects on progressive content (720p stations, like Fox-HD, ABC-HD,
and ESPN-HD).
I had assumed that the de-interlacing would adapt to the video source,
and turn off processing when doing progressive content. Apparently
this is not the case, but that would be an excellent feature
enhancement.
