Hi Chris.  I just jumped from 0.3.4b to 0.3.4j and wanted to report a couple 
of problems.

First, scaling seems to have broken on my 150MCE.  Also sound is no longer 
working either with this card.  Here's some stuff from dmesg:

Interesting, I just realized when going to copy the dmesg that it doesn't 
recognize this card, when previous versions do.  That looks like it's the 
problem right there.  I can try to force a card type, but I never had to do 
that with the earlier versions.

Also, although this is probably related to the unknown card problem, I'm 
getting this:

ivtv: i2c client addr: 0x21 not found!
ivtv: i2c client addr: 0x21 not found!
ivtv: i2c client addr: 0x21 not found!

ivtv: i2c client addr: 0x21 not found!
ivtv: i2c client addr: 0x40 not found!
ivtv: i2c client addr: 0x40 not found!

One last thing to note is that when I first tried this new driver, I went into 
Live TV in Myth and it stuttered quite a bit, as if it couldn't keep a full 
buffer or something.  Nothing showed up in dmesg or mythfrontend log though.  
I'm not sure if this is a hard drive DMA issue or something or card-related, 
but it seems to have gone away, and I re-ran hdparm on my drives to make sure 
they had everything enabled since sometimes on boot the kernel disables DMA 
on the drives for whatever reason.
