Tearing problems with Nvidia 6100

Ok, I'm having trouble getting rid of tearing too. I have the 6100 405. I'm running with a 1080i CRT RPTV. It seems that no matter what settings I choose, I get bad tearing. I do not have deinterlacing enabled. Is it possible to get a 1080i source displayed a 1080i display without tearing and without enabling deinterlacing?

I have a 6150 and I am using deinterlacing, but below is everything I tried and what worked for me. Various settings, cards, and monitors make for a lot of variables (what I had to do get one of HD frontend working was completely different for my other one, despite very similar cards). Hope some of it helps:

No. Use standard mpeg2 decoder and kernel deinterlacing. Works on all 3 of my frontends. ymmv.

Hmm. I guess I was hoping to prevent having to deinterlace the source since it's going to an interlaced display. It seems like I'm wasting cpu cycles. Is there any loss in quality when Xorg performs the interlace?
