[MPlayer-users] any luck playing 1080i content through VGA output to HDTV?

I'm sure I want to deinterlace (I'm getting live sporting events, not movies). 
My system is fast enough provided I use -vo xvmc -vc ffmpeg12mc.
Without XvMC I can't display *any* HD content.

Many, many filters don't work with -vo xvmc, so I'm limited to the
-vf pp=xxx family.  I've tried them all; they're all relatively
ineffective; perhaps the current favorite is -vf pp=lb.
