Yea, a option in config.txt would be a nice thing.
I saw you did some work to offload deinterlacing to the TV, wich would prabably work ok then?
Simple deinterlacer is basic software BOB I assume, right?

Command line omxplayer now supports "native" deinterlace. It only works where video resolution matches TV resolution, framerate matches and the interlace is "simple" (i.e. field order doesn't change during the stream).
It's effectively free, processing wise, and the TV can probably do a better job at deinterlacing.
I'd like to add this to these xbmc test builds at some point, just to see whether it works for many people.

The current HD/simple deinterlacer is software BOB.
