I get that error too, but captions work anyway. I wonder if maybe 
support for that particular ioctl has been removed. Here's what I use:

   ivtvctl -x 1 -b cc -w cc

In fact, I do it right in /etc/modprobe.conf:

   install ivtv /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install ivtv; /sbin/modprobe 
ivtv-fb; /usr/bin/ivtvctl -d /dev/video1 -x 1 -b cc -w cc; 
/usr/bin/ivtvctl -x 1 -b cc -w cc
install lirc_i2c /sbin/modprobe ivtv; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install lirc_i2c

I can then play back recordings using MythTV and the captions are 
intact. Of course, I'm using a 250 and a 350, not a 150. So that 
might be a difference.

(I'll probably remove the -w option now that I see it doesn't work 
and obviously isn't needed.)
