I'm not sure what you mean by the TV-out chip. I'm only using the 5700's to output the video - just like using an ordinary pc monitor. I'm playing back recorded HDTV programs using xine on the FC2 system and mplayer on the FC4 system (this can't be the problem - the desktop display from the FC4 system has the problem whether I actually run mplayer or not). The HDTV programs were captured by using HD-3000 HDTV tuners (bought at the same time not that they can really be the problem since the problem is in the OS desktop display itself). By the nvidia applet, I guess you are referring to an application with the menu name "NVIDIA X Server Settings" under Applications|System Tools? It's the only user program I've noticed that was installed when I installed the nvidia driver on the FC4 system. I've checked through all the options, changed some to see the effect, but none of them appear to control the pseudo de-interlacing. (I'm saying it's pseudo de-interlacing because xvidtune reports the correct 1920x1080i modeline information so I don't think the output is actually de-interlaced.) I guess I should contact nvidia.
