Using the ivtvdev X driver, if Xv isn't working for
it then I need to know how to make it work *shrug*.
Already tried the drivers at the link you provided,
with the problems already listed below, therefore using an older version of the
ivtvdev driver.

Sounds like you're not
using the XV accelerated framebuffer driver for your PVR-350 output.
This is causing your non-MPEG2 recordings (although I wonder what is
happening with your DVD playback, maybe your DVD player software isn't
using PVR-350 acceleration either?) to have poor performance.
I
don't have this card, but I believe you can download the X driver here: http://ivtvdriver.org/index.php/Download#Stable_release
