more progress, but still no solution using "dd if=/dev/video0 of=/dev/video16" and tuning manually with "ivtvctl --set-freq=xxx" I can tune the card to channels and have them come in correctly. Using ptune.pl and myth still do not work.
For example: ivtvctl --set-freq=1024 (lucky random value I started with) tunes the card to the correct channel 5 (ntsc-cable). Adding 100 to that tunes me to Channel 6, I'm not sure what the actual Hz between channels should be, but adding 100 gave a quality picture, where bumping it up or down 20 after that made the picture start ghosting. This doesn't work for all channels, but I have this so far: channel 3 = 760 channel 4 = 860 channel 5 = 1024 channel 6 = 1124 channel 95 = 1250 ??? Does this give anyone smarter than I any idea what is messed up? Is the tuner being detected wrong? Is there a frequency to channel mapping somewhere I can edit?
