Hi, thanks for reading. For what it's worth, after pushing through to a 2.6.10-r1 kernel (keeping at the 0.2.0 ivtv drivers), everything is working smoothly. I don't know what the problem was in the 2.6.9 kernel, whether is was me omitting some kernel options or what, but I'm now watching the smoothest video I've seen from the box, and picture-in-picture no less.
