I currently have a PVR-150 with ivtv-0.8.1 and kernel-2.6.18 and I'm happy with the quality of the picture. I'm thinking about returning the PVR-150 and getting a PVR-500 instead of getting a second PVR-150 to save a PCI slot. Is the difference in quality between the cards still noticeable?
If you are unlucky and buy a card that does not like a strong signal the answer is yes. There is no quality difference in patched kernels. The main difference is the patch is in 2.6.18 kernels so you automatically get it with ivtv-0.8.X and not applied in lower versions of the kernel. If so, is this a driver issue that is likely to be
fixed in the future?
I do not think so. And since the devs do not have proper documentation on these cards if it were a driver issue (which I do not believe so) it will be difficult to fix. John John
