[mythtv] Possible bug with mythtv-0.19 and ivtv-0.6.1?

[Andrew Lucas]

I just upgraded from kernel-2.4.31 to kernel-2.6.16, and from ivtv-0.4.3 to
ivtv-0.6.1. Before the upgrade, everything worked fine.

I am running Slackware 10.2, and MythTV 0.19, with an Adaptec VideOH!:
00:0c.0 Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC16 (CX23416)
MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01)

When attemping to watch live tv, the backend gives me this error:

2006-03-25 14:26:17.998 TVRec(1): Changing from None to WatchingLiveTV
Error setting codec params
VIDIOC_S_CTRL:: Invalid argument

And then a bunch of ring buffers, which count down to zero, then a bunch of
autoexpire errors, but ultimatly, nothing happens.

I reconfigured my input card in mythtv-setup, like some other posts said to. No
matter what settings I use in mythtvsetup, both "Composite 1" and "SVideo 1"
give me the same error. One difference I noticed, is that in previously, I had
about 10 or so inputs on my card. Now I only have 2.

But when I open the video device (/dev/v4l/video0) directly with MPlayer, it
plays fine. So I think that mythtv is trying to do something weird with
ivtvctl, that this new version doesnt understand. Is this a myth bug, or an
ivtv bug?  Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
Andrew
