That lookes bad. Can you view the incomming video with a TV application
?
If that works, try recording without audio (-a 0).
That cannot be the solution but will be interrestiong to see if the card
could record the video. The zoran cards usually do not like material
that has no exact sync pulses. 

If you have more poor quality videos you might be interresed in a device
like that from SIMA (CT-1): http://www.simacorp.com/ They have some
devices that regenerate the sync impulse and stabilizes the video. And
can do some color correction.

Do you use the original kernel driver or the CVS version ?
