Ok I got a little further, but still need some help. I'm running everything as
root which seems to fixed the problem of setting the video source. But when I
try to watch live tv I get an the message, Unable to initialize video and
the console says, IVTV_IOC_GET_FB: Invalid argument Now if I try a 'cat
/dev/v4l/video0 my.mpg' I get can view it, but there is a lot of static.
Details about my system are listed below, let me know if you need any other
info. Any help would be appreciated.

Subject: [mythtv-users] Setup troubles
I'm running Gentoo with the 2.6.10-gentoo kernel, ivtv-0.2.0_rc3-r3,
lirc-0.2.0_rc3-r3 and mythtv-0.17. The problem I'm having is in the setup for
Capture card. I select PVR-250/350, and type in /dev/v4l/video0, but it
doesn't give me any options for default input. And if I go back and review the
settings it switches it back to /dev/video. On the console I get:
