I have rised latency to 248 for bttv (module option) in the mean time
and upgraded stable to proposed-updates.

2.6.22 is the most likely solution.

Bug#426260: color is disturbed when tvtime changes default color settings

For the record, 'tvtime' has 'hue/saturation' which is the same thing.

On the bug itself, I'm getting the same dropped colors, _sometimes_,
but only after recently upgrading to an AMD mobo -- on my previous
Intel mobo it never happened.  Possibly relevant 'lspci' data:

00:00.0 Host bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8375 [KM266/KL266] Host Bridge
00:01.0 PCI bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8633 [Apollo Pro266 AGP]
00:08.0 Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt848 Video Capture 
(rev 01)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV15DDR [GeForce2 Ti] 
(rev a4)

The 'nvidia' card is the same as on my old system, (moved it over), it's
probably not the immediate cause.

What happens is that I'll close 'tvtime', and it worked fine; then do
some other stuff, maybe run some video viewer, then on restarting
'tvtime' everything looks too green.  Restarting X ('nv' driver)
restores the 'tvtime' colors.  On one occasion proper colors were
restored without restarting X, but I'm not sure how -- if I find a
reproducible method I'll post it.

HTH...

Well it doesn't on my system; I've been running kernel v2.6.22 on both
the old Intel and the new AMD-based system...

% cat /proc/version

Bug#426260: color is disturbed when tvtime changes default color settings

2007-05-29 Thread Artur Górniak
Package: tvtime
Version: 1.0.2-0.2
Followup-For: Bug #426260

bug is duplicated in #426311 because of my mistake.

I have investigated it further and discovered that the problem has appeared
after changing of channel settings (color, contrast, chroma).
diff of v4l-info shows:

581,583c581,583
   hue : 32768
   colour  : 32768
   contrast: 32768
---
   hue : 65535
   colour  : 45875
   contrast: 36044

I do not know proper range for hue, colour and contrast for v4l devices but
these settings are surely incorrect in my configuration.

the problem is associated only with AMD IRONGATE chipset.
There was no problems when I was using piix with the same TV card earlier.

Summing up the problem is somewhat related to changing of TV settings (tvtime
has no separate hue/colour controls) on some computer systems (I saw simillar
reports in the net).
