I have some difficulties with playing video from my PVR350 directly from /dev/video0 using mplayer. After a few minutes, the screen gets updated very slowly and will hang shortly after. I can play DVD's without problems. When I do "cat /dev/video0 > file.mpg" and "mplayer file.mpg" I do not have any issues either.

There are no message in dmesg or in /var/log. mplayer says my 2.4GHz P4 is too slow(?) and suggests to use different output drivers (ao and vo) but I am unable to get to a working solution.

mplayer -cache 1024 -vf crop=704:560:6:6,pp=lb/al -monitoraspect 1.25 /dev/video0

Test 'mplayer' without all the post-processing. I'd suggest checking the ivtv drivers with 'mplayer -cache 8192 /dev/video0'. I suspect that the problem lies in the four post-processing options you have asked 'mplayer' to perform.
