I'm seeing this more with SVN 8xxx than I did with 7607. I'm watching DVB PBSHD and even slow motion isn't smooth but it looks more like to me frame conversion (24fps -> 30fps) than anything else since it's jerky, then smooth, then jerky again. I'll have to watch more HD to figure out if it's that or something different.

Lost is on ABC and ABC is 720p.  My Name is Earl is on NBC and NBC is 1080i.

TTBOMK, it can be broken down as:

ABC/Fox = 720p
CBS/NBC/PBS/UPN*/WB = 1080i

*at least those UPN stations owned by CBS (don't know about the other
UPN stations, but some may be in 720p)

Also, all cable/satellite premium networks (HBO, Showtime, Discovery HD,
HDNet, HDNet Movies, INHD) use 1080i for movies/special programs
(because it's better for "not fast"-moving scenes).  ESPN HD (which,
like ABC, is owned by Disney) uses 720p (because it's better for
fast-moving scenes as exist in sports).  Strangely enough, NBA TV uses
1080i (maybe they have the players run slowly :).

Ok, so maybe that is the reason for jerky motion playback on MNiE vs smooth on Lost.  Now, if so, how do I fix it?
