So it would be better to make a HD DVD or Blue ray through a HD DVD player or whatever after editing to obtain a better result or feeding the signal from my computer to the TV via DVI.

Surely the TV's inbuilt scaler is displaying an overscanned image (i.e. cropping the edges) anyway, so it cannot be a pixel-for-pixel image, or even close?

The TH-42PV500A is a inexpensive unit with nothing in the manual on setting the interlace mode for film vs video. It likely simply scaling each field from 540 to 768 for each 1/50th S.
