Being recently forced to upgrade my MythTV machine due to the whole Schedules Direct thing I'm having some problems getting everything working again. I don't think this is a MythTV specific problem because it happens when testing from the command line using the ivtv utils and 'cat /dev/video0' type testing.
I'm using a PVR-350. The issue is that capturing in MPEG-1 VCD mode at 320x240 no longer works. Doing 'cat /dev/video0 > test.mpg' generates a 0 byte file. Same in MythTV. Is this a mode that is not normally tested? Capturing with a 480 height seems to work normally. I have tested this both from unstable Debian (using the very latest stuff like kernel 2.6.22 and the 1.0.2 driver) and from Ubuntu Feisty (2.6.20 kernel and the 10.1 ivtv drivers). Both exhibit the same problem with not being able to read from the capture device. I don't know what my previous version of the driver was but it's probably a least a year or two old and it worked (very old in any case because once this stuff works I never touch it because of reasons like I'm seeing now).
