I have this nice setup of GBPVR and a LCD TV connected through DVI to a Intel graphics chip.
My recordings are interlaced MPEG2 and my big problem was the terrible deinterlacing done by PC based deinterlacers.
And yes, I tried many but none can come near to the quality of the deinterlacer in the rather good TV i have.
Finally I succeeded in getting rid of the deinterlacing by the PC by setting the graphics card to 576P at 50Hz (yes I am PAL) and disabling the deinterlacing by ffdshow.
The TV then discovers that, although it gets Progressive from DVI it actually is interlaced and starts to deinterlace.
Picture quality goes through the roof without tearing, blur, yaggies, stutter or other artifacts.
The home cinema experience finally becomes acceptable using a PC for playback (and GBPVR!)
