Probably a mismatch in the driver tools versions.  Did you make sure to
always use the tools that come with the respective driver?

Yes, I did. But it should work regardless of the tool's version, there are only ioctls to be done, and as long as the parameters for the ioctl do not change it makes no difference what program uses it.

Back to the problem:

I just wanted to start testing 0.3.1 and 0.3.1z, but both versions won't compile: with 0.3.1 gcc spits warnings about 'pci_dma_sync_single' which appears not to exist in the kernel 2.6.11.12 (or wherever it is supposed to be). Later during install the warning is '*** Warning: "pci_dma_sync_single" [/usr/src/ivtv-0.3.1/driver/ivtv.ko] undefined!'.

0.3.1z has a compile time error, I did not check for a quick work around as i did some times before with other probs because saa7115 is an active module for the pvr 250. Btw version 0.3.0l has the same problem:
--->
In file included from /usr/src/ivtv-0.3.1z/driver/saa7115.c:83:
/usr/src/ivtv-0.3.1z/driver/ivtv.h:57: field `data' has incomplete type
<---

pci_dma? Could it be that some changes in dma handling were necessary during 0.3.0 or 0.3.1 and that the problem was intruduced then?

If the drop outs are caused by a too slow dma irq handler or such this could explain that the problem already existed in 0.3.3z and became worse in 0.3.5z?
