Just tested the new 0.2.0-rc3i drivers, they show the same problem as the original test mpg I uploaded. On both boxes with both cards the problem is now the same. Looking at all my tests shows somthing intimage shows something interesting : only the top half (well maybe 60%) of the picture suffers from the blockiness in all my tests.
The issue is clearly not mythtv related, all tests show the same issue without mythtv running, just using dd from the /dev/video0 device. == While writing this, I decided to test the new 0.3.2j devel driver, and after shutting down the power and restarting, the picture is fine !! (well there are no blocks anymore, there still is some tearing, and the picture looks more blurry than my 350 video (very clearly visible in the channel logo, which is just a word. Almost looks like an interlaced / non-interlaced problem, lines seem shifted somehow. I can upload a test image if anyone is interested.
