You didn't mention if you are using NTSC or PAL. Assuming you're  
using NTSC, I recommend arranging for the following commands to run  
at startup:

v4l2-ctl --set-fmt-sliced-vbi=cc -c stream_vbi_format=1
v4l2-ctl --set-fmt-sliced-vbi-out=cc
ivtvctl -w cc

- The first command tells ivtv to configure the PVR-350 for capturing  
VBI data, which includes the CC stream.

- The second command tells ivtv to configure the PVR-350 for VBI  
output. Use your TV's CC support.

- The third command may not be necessary any longer. I don't remember  
what it was supposed to do, but it's not causing trouble at this  
point. :)

If you want to use MythTV's built-in support for CC, only the first  
command should be necessary.
