I finally updated from the archaic ivtv 0.1.10x
driver, which worked fine to 0.4.5, and it worked, but
only right after I initially installed it, only to
never again work at all.
I tried everything from reinstalling everything to
shutting down for the prescribed five minutes to cold
boot, to fiddling around with the setting with
ivtvctl, all to no avail.
I'm running Linux kernel 2.4.32 with the following two
patches applied:
linux-2.4.32-dbox2-v4l2.diff
linux-2.4.32-i2c-2.10.0-drivers-i2c.diff

My card is an NTSC PVR-350 connected to a normal
antenna via coax directly to the back of the card.
I get nothing but lines of static with no sound.

I also get this cryptic message when I do a "ivtvctl
-I":
check SAA7115 input signal
ioctl: VIDEO_STATUS = Bad

SAA7115 reg[STATUS#1 - 0x1E] = 50
 Color Standard (D0-D1): BW/No color
 White peak loop (D2): Not activated

SAA7115 reg[STATUS#2 - 0x1F] = c0

 Macrovision 7.01 (D1): No
 MV Colorstripe burst (D2): No
 MV Colorstripe burst type 3 (D3): No
 Input signal timebase (D4): Non-stable (VCR)
 Field frequency (D5): 50Hz
 H & V loops (D6): Unlocked
 Interlace (D7): Detected

Any ideas why I am plagued with this problem?
