You are fully right. More luck this time...

In parallel with the debugging, I used the ivtvctl program to see what is 
exactly done to enable vbi recording (and accidently switched it on:-).
For some reason, the cvs version doesnot generate the magic cookies
'itv0' and 'ITV0' as part of the private stream 1xbd. 
Based on this I concluded that the ivtv settings are not sufficient. It sets 
the VBI mode, but doesnot say it should embed things in the MPEG steam...
In this patch I added IVTV_IOC_S_VBI_EMBED for this.
