Thanks. This makes a big (positive) difference for me. I have a PVR-350
and PVR-150 within my Mythtv box and I had the saturation problem also.
Seems to be gone now after using the ivtvctl command you provided.

Should this be put in a startup script or is this something that will be
fixed in a future driver release?
