Unfortunately, I have not managed to get this to work, and it really
puzzles me that I once got a recorded stream to work perfectly on
XBMC, but now it never works. I have tried every setting I could think
of using ivtvctl. I could not see any significant difference in output
from mplayer when playing a recorded file that works on XBMC and one
that does not work.

Is anyone here using ivtv to record for using PVR 450 for playback
using XBMC? If so, could you please post your output of ivtvctl -a? I
am really out of ideas. My output is below. (which might show some
funny values, I don't know, since I changed many things, rebooted and
so on)
