Have you tried the ivtv module option ivtv_std=3? That selects SECAM.
However, if this does not work then I recommend upgrading to 2.6.16 &
ivtv-0.6.x as in that version you can select the precise SECAM standard
(BG, DK, L). Depending on where you live that might be needed.
Check with ivtvctl --log-status to see what standard is detected. In
case of problems please show the output of this command. It is very
useful to solve problems like this.
