I recently upgraded my working PVR500-based system to ivtv 0.4.1, kernel 
2.6.15, etc.  and I broke TV tuning in the process.  After a while deleting 
parameters, I now have it 'nearly' working.  Specifically, I get video with 
mplayer, and I get video and audio for approx one second before both freeze 
in mythtv.  I'm using the following script to load ivtv:

#!/bin/bash
echo Loading IVTV drivers.
echo Unloading modules
rmmod eeprom
rmmod ivtv
rmmod tveeprom
sleep 2
echo Loading i2c
modprobe i2c_dev
sleep 2
echo Loading tveeprom
modprobe tveeprom
sleep 1

echo Loading ivtv
modprobe ivtv  mpg_buffers=8 ivtv_dynbuf=0

ivtvctl -u 0xff -q 0 -f width=720,height=576 -d /dev/video1
ivtvctl -u 0xff -q 0 -f width=720,height=576 -d /dev/video0

ivtv-tune -t newzealand -d /dev/video0 -c 2
ivtv-tune -t newzealand -d /dev/video1 -c 2

When playing with mplayer I get:

Too many video packets in the buffer: (4096 in 8126440 bytes).
Maybe you are playing a non-interleaved stream/file or the codec failed?
For AVI files, try to force non-interleaved mode with the -ni option.
MPEG: No audio stream found -> no sound.

I wondered if the too many video packets was due to experimenting with:
ivtvctl -b wss,cc -x 1


Any help appreciated!
