I've just had to replace my trusty but now malfunctioning PVR250 with a
new PVR150. Although it was recognized automatically by the ivtv drivers
and in many respects works well, I immediately had a number of issues
with colour saturation that I now understand are not uncommon. I've
updated ivtv to v4.4 which includes a fix for saturation issues with
that card and things have improved a lot. Note that I'm not on 4.7 as I
was getting some problems with the ivtv driver failing to respond a few
times with that version.

The remaining problem is a good one though. If i tune to one particular
channel (BBC2, channel 23) after about a minute of watching, all the
colour goes and we're left watching in black and white. From that point
on a number of other channels (specifically BBC1 and ITV, channels 21
and 25) will also now appear in black and white, until I tune to any of
the remaining channels which will appear in colour, and apparently reset
the saturation of all the troublesome channels. Going back to BBC2 will
repeat the same problems.

This only seems to happen with that one channel, and happens repeatedly
and reliably.

I'm stumped as to what might be causing this. Can anyone help out?
