Need minor configuration help using an older WinTV tuner. I am using Matt Zimmerman's 0.18.1 MythTV binaries on a Debian/Sid system. The database and everything are configured and working (appear fine from the backend log file). I have audio and my prefer startup channel is selected correctly. I can tell by listening to the audio and using another TV. So the tuner is working fine. The problem is the video output; I end up with a black screen with TV audio and Xorg using 90% CPU. I do see current file activity in my configured output file folder.
When I kill the mythbackend process, I still have a blank screen and tuner audio. I tailed the log file from another computer using a ssh session and watch it change from Watching TV to None. xawtv, qtvision/kdetv, xine, and mplayer all work great in normal windows or in full screen modes. v4l is loaded and working.
From dmesg:

I have configured MythTV to use v4l and /dev/video0 and /dev/vbi0 and am using Xorg logged in as the mythtv user. I have an older Nvidia GeForce2/GTS and I use either nvidia or nv X11 modules. What am I missing or doing wrong?
