Hmm, this clearly is a driver bug. Try the ivtv trunk (use it for
encoding only, decoding is still flaky in that version). I ripped out
dynamic allocation completely from that version, so you should be OK
with that. But if you are also using TV-out, then you'd better wait
until I finish the rewrite.
