I finally got it working but I dont understand why.  I have had the following problem for several days which I couldn't fix. 

# ivtvctl --input-detect
check SAA7115 input signal
ioctl: VIDEO_STATUS = Bad

I started playing with ptune-ui.pl and changed "NTSC" --> "NTSC-hrc". It worked after that.

# ivtvctl -I
check SAA7115 input signal
ioctl: VIDEO_STATUS = Sat/Dvd

What is the difference?
How do I set that via command line without going through the ptune-ui.pl?
Any problems I may face with using it?

Also, after every reboot I have to execute the following everytime.
modprobe ivtv
modprobe ivtv_fb
chmod 666 /dev/video*
ptune-ui.pl (change to NTSC-hrc)

I could write a script but wasn't sure if there is a better way.

==== /etc/modprobe.conf  ====
# ivtv modules setup
alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
