This happened to me when I first put this machine together in January
with FC3. I moved in the mean time and it went on the back burner. I
just installed FC4 and started from scratch following Jarod's scheme.
After installing all the IVTV drivers, I did some basic tests to prove
that I could get video input and output. But when I try to start X, my
monitor goes blank and the TV STAYS blank. I have a two 350s in the
machine and I've tried both with the same results. I have seen numerous
examples of this problem and not much in the way of feedback as to
whether those solutions succeeded.
Here is my current xorg.conf:

# RgbPath is the location of the RGB database. Note, this is the name
of the
# file minus the extension (like ".txt" or ".db"). There is normally
# no need to change the default.
# Multiple FontPath entries are allowed (they are concatenated together)
# By default, Red Hat 6.0 and later now use a font server independent of
# the X server to render fonts.

# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the
# lines below (which are the defaults). For example, for a non-U.S.
# keyboard, you will probably want to use:
# Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
# Option "XkbModel" "microsoft"
#
# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# or:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
#
# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
# control keys, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:swapcaps"
# Or if you just want both to be control, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:nocaps"
