After upgrading to ivtv-0.3.2c-66.rhfc2.at and forcing cardtype=2
(PVR250) I am still getting stuttering every few seconds. 
mythfrontend -v playback generates this output:

I find ~26.5 fps a bit of an odd capture rate for a NTSC signal.  I'm
guessing that the frontend is trying to pad that frame rate to get
back to 29.99 fps causing the stuttering.  Any hints on what might be
causing this?  Is this a buffering issue? I've verified that the
frontend will in fact play back a prerecorded video at 29.99 fps, so
I'm almost positive that it must be something to do with the capture.

One bug to note is with the 0.3.2c version of ivtv, "modinfo ivtv"
incorrectly reports cardtype 1 as a PVR250.  This would instead select
a PVR150.

Here's the full ivtv dump:
