so you have a DVB receiver, and an analog link form it to your PC's analog
tuner card? shit. you should consider buying a cheap DVB card to the pc and
record as-is the mpeg2. even a p100 can do that...

ok you should, _if_ you capture NTSC, and not PAL.

then forget ffmpeg's mjpeg, use ffmpeg's mpeg4 with I-only (keyint=0,
shouldn't be slower than mjpeg but it supports interlacing)

or implement interlacing support into ffmpeg's mjpeg.

or split frames to fields with -vop il=d
