Hi IVTV developers,
I've got a permanent offset between the audio and video in the
mpeg encoded output from my Hauppauge WinTV PVR-150 card, and am
looking for a way to fix it.  The offset occurred sometime after
using ivtv-0.7.4 and switching to ivtv-0.10 (yes, I've been
living with it for many months).  It may have happened when I
used the record-v4l2.pl program from a previous package.

I normally use the audio and composite video output from a VCR
as inputs to the card, but I see the same offset if I connect
a TV aerial directly to the RF input on the card.  I'm thinking
that a register got clobbered at some point with some garbage
value, and am looking for some advice on how to clear it.  I've
tried shutting down the computer and leaving it without power
(i.e. with the power cord disconnected) for about 20 minutes,
but that doesn't remove the offset.  Any advice on how to clear
it would be much appreciated.

I'm currently using ivtv-0.10.5.  The audio precedes the video
by about 165 ms.  Here are some of the specs of my system:
