Are you sure, it's the PVR-150's imgae and not the HVR-1600's image. I goofed up the CX23418 A/V decoder's video scaler setting and the fix just went to the main v4l-dvb repository around Monday or Tuesday. In /var/log/messages you may see "cx18-0 843: invalid size" (or something like that) if that is the case. 2. When the PVR-150 image is wrong can you do a $ v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video0 --log-status $ v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video1 --log-status And post the results. 3. Also, MythTV can do Picture in picture. What do various PiP combinations look like?
