Hi,

when jumping to a position I get messages like

   ivtv picture start overflow, please inform mythtv-dev at mythtv.org

and the jumps are really slow. Actually it depends on how far the jump is.
Jumping 20 minutes takes much longer than just 1 minute. Jumping for
60 minutes can take about 1 minute (where the screen is just black).
This is really annoying when having set a jump point which is far off from
the beginning of a recorded  show.

This is mythtv as it comes with debian stable.
Kernel 2.6.21.1, debian amd64 on a intel 6700 system, self-compiled
Two Hauppauge TV cards (PVR 150 and PVR 350)
ivtvdriver 0.10.2, self compiled
xserver-xorg-video-ivtv/unstable uptodate 0.10.6-1 as it comes with
debian unstable

I'm using the S-video output of the PVR 350 card.
When using the computer LCD monitor as output, everything is ok,
so this seems to be related to the PVR 350 output. When using the PVR
350 output,
I've a second X session which uses the ivtv x driver as device.

any ideas?
