When I first had DirecTV installed, I had this same problem. Turns out it was the Sony satellite receiver that DirectTV had installed. I later purchased a new receiver, and I've never had the problem since.

You're right, Tom. I see no difference betwwen the s-video cable in interlaced mode and the component video cables in progressive mode. But then, neither do I see a difference with the Denon 910 using interlaced versus progressive modes. What does that tell you?
