This adds the decoder patch from John Harvey, with some changes to speed up
Decoder stopping. It helps keep decoder threads from running into one another on fast stop/starts and also clears the buffers upon stop every

#0.3.3z: http://www.ivtv.tv/releases/ivtv-03/
Thanks, Chris
This is the worst driver yet for me - complete noisy picture top 95%, some sort of image on bottom 5%. Intermittenmt freezes.
All 0.3.3 releases have been bad for my card (150MCE, PAL, tuner type 38), most notably when fast-forwarding/rewinding at hight speeds.
FF/REW works fine when Myth has been paused for only a couple of minutes, but any longer and FF/REW at (most notably) hight speeds (> 5 x) the image freezes and I'm dumped into the Myth GUI shortly thereafter. Also, switching channels takes a long time - first, the image stops, afetr 2 secs I get another freeze-frame, then the switch occurs, and after 2 secs or so there is a brief pause (1/2 sec) before returning to normal playback. At some point, after 2-3 days of continous play, I got badly synchronised sound (like a badly dubbed movie). Starting watching TV for the first time after the driver has been loaded takes a long time, also, close to 30 secs...
Of all 0.3.3 drivers, 0.3.3y is the best.
For me, 0.3.2q is the most stable driver. Stable playback, great picture & sound, haven't tested fast FF/REW yet, but I believe it isn't as bad as in the 0.3.3 series.
Also, I want to commend Nick Rosier & Sigurd Nes for their tips on activating DNR (both temporal and spatial). Image improvement is vast! It now looks as a picture produced by a proffesional device! Thanks!
Cheers,
