My problems have been resolved by changing the image size in the recording profiles.
Strangly, the height was set correctly to 576 but the width was set to 480. Setting it to 768 as indicated in the field help information at the bottom of the screen, was all that was needed to fix my problem.
Can't mythtv / mythbuntu set these things to correct default values? It knows that i'm using PAL (configured during setup) and it knows my encoder card.
