At the risk of stating the obvious - the files created go in different directories. Are you sure the live tv directory exists and is writeable by the appropriate user. If that's all good, then maybe there's some useful info in the backend log file. IMO if mplayer works then ivtv is working - anything else is a myth problem and should probably be discussed on the mythtv list.
