Would the jagged edges appear because the source was meant for 50Hz
Interlaced, while the hardware is set for 60Hz interlaced? I had a similar
problem on my nvidia tv-out device, and had to revert back to older drivers.

nvidia-drivers 1.0.7185, is the last driver that still support setting the
tv-out device to 50Hz, instead of the default: PAL 60Hz. Any driver that
nvidia released later on, doesn't seem to support tv-out @50Hz, no
xorg.confsettings will work. My card is an old Geforce4 440MX, so the
new cards
requires later drivers :(

I hope this maybe helps somebody.

Style may not be the answer, but at least it's a workable alternative.
