I've taken a couple of screenshots of AOTC playing through my computer's DVD-ROM and I'm not pleased with the results. I'm trying to understand more about HTPC, but these results do not leave a good impression. What bothers me about the quality of the picture is the way curved and diagonal edges look. I've provided two pictures so you know what i'm talking about.
1) STAR WARS logo - look at the diagonal lines in the middle of the the 'S' and on the sides of 'A' and you'll see what I mean.

2) Anakin and Padme - look at Padme's neck and Anakin's back and chin.

Can anyone tell me why the picture looks like this? Here are my specs.
Video Card - nVidia RIVA TNT 2 Pro w/ 32 MB RAM
Monitor - 1024 x 768
