I upgraded to 0.17 today, specifically I updated to
CVS from CVS of

mythfrontend after the
update, it started updating schema, but seemed to
hang. The next time I
ran it, it completed fine.
After the update, I cannot watch live TV. In fact
trying to do so
leaves my PVR 250 in an unusable state.
mythfrontend --verbose gives
the following output:

I can do the following just fine after a reboot or
removing the ivtv
module and reloading it.
$ cat /dev/video0 > test.mpg
$ mplayer test.mpg
Once I start mythfrontend and try to Watch Live TV,
further attempts to
capture as above fail as does watch live TV. I
notice that ringbuf1.nuv
only gets to about 60k in size. After mythfrontend
has been started and
things break, a command like "mplayer /dev/video0"
will stop buffering
around 60k.
The only changes shown by ivtvctl -a before and
after I try to watch
live TV are:
-bitrate : 8000000
-bitrate_peak: 9600000
+bitrate : 4500000
+bitrate_peak: 6000000
ioctl: VIDIOC_G_FMT
Type : Video Capture
- Width : 720
+ Width : 480
-Volume = 58880
+Volume = 58950
Can anyone offer suggestions as to how I can fix
this?

I read a thread in the archives where I it looks like
someone else had a similar problem. The fix for him
was to turn of CC in the setup:
