* *I get the same error, i recommend trying out a newer version (0.7.1 for
that kernel iirc). My experience is that tv cards are sensitive and i didn't
get a decent signal until all the wiring/connectors were replaced for decent
stuff. So check your wiring, and see if something can be improved.

 hi everyone,

i just installed ivtv 0.70 on my ubuntu 6.10 box (via the binary
packages).
It works fine, but the video image I get is of a lower quality than what
the TV get from my cable box (on the same wire).
Below I attached the dmesg. It says something about "Unreasonably low
latency timer" - could that be related?
Can anyone tell me how to further tweak ivtv to get a higher quality
video?

Thanks!!!
