I recorded 2 hours worth of shows at 720x480 and no mangled frames.
(knock on wood)
I am using the suggested firmware.
Thank you Keith and Bill.
As for the jumps, they're more of a flash, a flash of I don't know
what?
Here is a 4s snippet of a recording, there is flash at 3s.

Wow, I finally was able to play back your clip (VLC didn't seem to
do it and Safari on Mac mangled the file, but mplayer from a
firefox download worked). Thats a very strange flash. I got a
screen grab of it. Its a partially shifted (or interlaced) frame
that only occurs for a single frame. This needs someone from the
dev list to look at it, so I'm cross posting it to that list.
Here's the screen grab (its a tiff, and its 776 Kb) :

My current kernel is 2.6.14-1.1637_FC4 with the following, I am
pretty sure everything is current.
ivtv-firmware-1.8a-4.at

I have been recording at either 640x480 and 720x480 MPEG-PS using a
variable bitrate of 6000-9000. I am pretty sure,
right now it's 720x480. I will verify tonight, That would be nice if I
can work around this.
