I would think that adding this extra capacitance to ground to the video output, which normally has to drive a much smaller capacitance, would reduce the frequency response, causing lack of sharpness of the display.

Good point.

Perhaps add a couple inductors in series with the secondary legs to block the high frequency content from being shunted to ground through the winding capacitance?
