RGB should be sufficient for most TV's. I don't know the Sanyo PLV-Z2, 
whats the screen size?
It would also be helpfull to know more details about your hardware, 
especially the DVB card type.

You should take a look at tvtime ( http://tvtime.sourceforge.net ). It 
uses a X server and thus the gfx-card output. Further it features a nice 
deinterlacer and some other goodies like 16:9 output.
