Hi,

Yes, they are smooth for a brief moment, and then get jagged.
I recall this behavior when I had a FF card for testing. Maybe it's a feature to stop flickering one pixel high horizontal lines in still images by doubling one field of the frame. Maybe there exists a switch to turn this feature off.
To prove the above mentioned behavior, please try this synthetic file:

Actually, it should display like here: http://home.vrweb.de/~rnissl/radio/field_test.png
But if the above is true, you'll get some heavy flicker on TV and then it will split the screen into a top and bottom half where one half will be white and the other one black. This will happen when the FF card decides to display just a single field of the frame.
You've tried to repeat an I frame forever. Try to remove the sequence end code (00 00 01 B7) from the end of the file before mplexing and the MPEG program end code (00 00 01 B9) from the file after mplexing. Maybe remove everything up to the first video PES packet from the final file.
Bye.
