Stay with this (or a newer) version. If only because it makes it much easier
to get your fixes in.

See doc/QuickSetup.
The only odd thing I see this:
ivtv: i2c client addr: 0x44 not found for command 0x80046502!
0x44 is the i2c address for the cx24850 decoder, but you have the saa7115. So
who's calling this and why?
Do you get any kernel messages when starting a capture? They can be useful.
Most likely all your problems have to do with byte ordering. Good luck :-)

Hans
