v4l or v4l2 isn't implemented for the PVR-150 cards. you need to set
the group_type = ivtv in your IVTV_OPTIONS . At least that works for
me.
VIDEO_GROUPS? IVTV_OPTIONS looks a bit different
only problem is that you'll be watch encoded/decoded video, instead of
the raw yuy2 stream, which kinda sucks..
The video from /dev/video0 looks rather good that said, I doubt I'll
ever want to look on live TV, the video and audio quality is better on
my digital cable anyway - the purpose is recording, and viewing that.
I've attached my local_conf.py - anything obvious I've forgotten, to
make it not use V4L?

No, I'm guessing a 64 bit issue.

Oh. I see. In that case you're right, it's probably a 64 bit isssue.
As to whether it is a kernel driver issue or a python issue, I'm not
sure (I'm not so familiar with python).

Taking a wild guess, but perhaps it's one of your local_conf.py options.
The integer is greater than maximum is what makes me think this. I
would double check the number settings of TV_IVTV_OPTIONS and VIDEO_GROUPS.
You don't mention what card you are using, but here is what I have for a
pvr 250:
VIDEO_GROUPS = [
VideoGroup(vdev='/dev/video0',
adev=None,
input_type='tuner',
input_num=4,
tuner_norm='NTSC',
tuner_chanlist='us-cable',
desc='Regular cable',
group_type='ivtv',
recordable=True),
]
TV_IVTV_OPTIONS = {
'input' : 4,
'resolution': '720x480',
'aspect': 2,
'audio_bitmask' : 233,
'bframes' : 3,
'bitrate_mode' : 1,
'bitrate' : 400,
'bitrate_peak' : 400,
'dnr_mode' : 0,
