Cher, I am building a myth server for a friend, and his PVR500 is samsung tuner based. Some different ivtv init messages:

PVR 500 (unit #2), card #1 Dec 25 10:46:16 myth-master kernel: ivtv: ==================== END INIT IVTV ==================== Also tried with all intermediate kernels and appropriate ivtv versions. In all cases the behaviour is the same: card tunes, but signal is not stable. It can seem stable for a while, but either tuning or just waiting will show a disturbed signal. Its as if the tuners loses lock for a moment: - double image - upper half superimposed over lower half or reverse - lot of image distortion. Any suggestions as to the cause, and more importantly, the solution? At need i can build a Windows PC (though Athlon64 based) to check whether windows has the same behaviour.
