Since I upgraded my version of IVTV via APT-GET a couple of weeks
ago I
have problems with my picture (on captured movies and on Live TV). I
get a picture with random artifacts (large blocks of strange
colors).
The appear on different parts in the screens and seems to be totally
random. It seems that I don't have the right after a reboot, but it
appears after a day or so. Sometimes there are more artifact and
sometime there is none.
Anybody else seen/have the same problem? Any hint to a solution?
At first, I thought my cards (a PVR-350 and PVR-250MCE) were
overheating; my
MythTV box is in an Antec Overture case. I replaced the stock
heatsinks with
chipset fans. The recordings were still corrupted.
What finally fixed the problem for me was reverting to an older
version of
ivtv. I had been running 0.3.3k, but am now running 0.2.0_rc3,
which is the
newest version Gentoo considers stable (more specifically, I'm
using the
0.2.0_rc3-r4 ebuild). The MPEG corruption is now gone. Life is good.
This fix might not work if you're running a PVR-150, but I wasn't
able to get
one of those working at all when I tried one this past weekend.

Teruel,
I have not tried the G button. What function is associated that button?
Scott,
I too thought that my problem was related to heat since it seems to
work with other versions, but I
have come the the same conclusion that my problems is related to my
version of IVTV.
I am running a PVR-250 and does not have to run the 0.3.x version
therefor I will try do downgrade my version.
Anybody know if older versions of ivtv is available via apt-get?
/Mats
