This is definately a bug in the nvidia driver. I experienced this a while ago with the older drivers. It got better with the newer ones but never went completely. NVidia's support of the TV-out in their drivers is woeful. My personal opinion is its a macrovision/open source legal clash, and NVidia are afraid to test the waters.
