you didn't say, but by any chance are you using the tv out on a PVR
350? It needs to run a small mpeg to initialize itself.
try watching tv for a few seconds. or run
dd if=/dev/video0 of=/dev/video16 bs=64k
for a few secnods (control-c to stop)
if this is the case, and it does fix it, you should look into
upgrading to the latest stable ivtv-0.4 driver, becuase it contains a
tiny mpeg that will initialize your card at boot.
or if this is not your situation than just ignore all of the above
and i can't help you.

I've recently installed xine-lib to enable DVD playback. Before
xine, I got purple/green blocks for video. Now I've got a strange

to check.
When I reboot the machine (something I've been doing a lot more
than I like, lately), and I immediately try to RIP or watch a DVD,
I get the purple/green blocks. This problem goes away whenever I
transcode anything. So after a reboot, I need to record some live
tv for a couple of seconds, transcode it (which makes me lose audio
for some other reason), then go back to watch DVD and it's fine.
It's not a huge deal since I shouldn't be rebooting very often, but
these kinds of puzzles bug me until I figure them out. Any ideas?
