I got it .  Problem was not with ivtv, but with the X driver.
In order to watch TV on a EPIA M10000 you need to have XcMC corectly configured. (XV doesn't use the hw accel.)
Probably some of those steps are not needed but ...
1) Copy the libviaXvMC* to /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/
2) Tell xine to use the correct driver add: "libviaXvMC.so" to /etc/X11/XVMCConfig

Then you can watch TV using xine (You have to tell it to use xxmc)
cat /dev/video1 | xine stdin://

I didn't succeed to use mplayer, seems taht it has to be patched to correctly use the openchrome XVMC feature.

Rem: I didn't succeed

I'm getting crazy ;-)

More informations:
- I integrate the latest fw form hauppage
- I replaced the unichrmoe via driver by the openchrome one, which seems more up to date

Result1
-  When watchind a movie (  AVI, 640 x 352, 23.98 fps, video: XviD, audio: MPEG-1 Layer 3 (stereo, 44100 Hz)) the display is very smooth, processor go to 25% and everything is fine (Use gmplayer with XV)
- But when I still have the same problem for watching  TV
(Either with Xine (Gave me a video_out_xxmc: Unichrome CPU saving is off) or mplayer(xvmc give a blank screen)), XV is slow.
BUT : "Top" give ivtv-enc  5% CPU, gmplayer  80-90%

Since I have no problem watching movie files, would it be a problem with the IVTV ?

Hello,
I have a a PVR350 on a VIA M10000.  When I try to watch TV using mplayer /dev/video1 I get a :
dmesg:
ivtv0: All encoder MPEG stream buffers are full. Dropping data.
ivtv0: Cause: the application is not reading fast enough.
ivtv0: All encoder MPEG stream buffers are full. Dropping data.

I use the latest IVTV 0.8, My Xorg seems ok.(on a Ubuntu dapper).
Does anybody has an idea where to look at ?

You only posted a fragment of your xorg.log, instead of this whole thing.  You need to check if xorg's log reports that you are succesfully running the XVideo extension.

If not, the upscaling of video resolution to match your video card's screen size has to be done in software, which will pretty much eat up your CPU time and kill you completely.
