I have a mythtv box with a PVR-250, -350, and -500.
The -250 and -350 work fine.
I'm using Fedora Core 3, and the ivtv-0.3.6w drivers.
If I 'cat /dev/video0 >/tmp/vid0.mpg' all is fine... (this is the -250).
If I 'cat /dev/video2 >/tmp/vid2.mpg' it just sits there, and the file size is
always 0.

No, I know the volume and contrast, sat and hue seem a bit wacked, but first
I'd like to get picture of anything on it, even static.
I'm driving it from a splitter from standard cable-tv (ie, no set-top box).
Any pointers?
