Lost is on ABC and ABC is 720p. My Name is Earl is on NBC and NBC is 1080i.
TTBOMK, it can be broken down as:
ABC/Fox = 720p
CBS/NBC/PBS/UPN*/WB = 1080i
*at least those UPN stations owned by CBS (don't know about the other
UPN stations, but some may be in 720p)
Also, all cable/satellite premium networks (HBO, Showtime, Discovery HD,
HDNet, HDNet Movies, INHD) use 1080i for movies/special programs
(because it's better for "not fast"-moving scenes). ESPN HD (which,
like ABC, is owned by Disney) uses 720p (because it's better for
fast-moving scenes as exist in sports). Strangely enough, NBA TV uses
1080i (maybe they have the players run slowly :).

Ok, so maybe that is the reason for jerky motion playback on MNiE vs smooth on Lost. Now, if so, how do I fix it?
