I had almost the same thing but didn't get a message about the system being
too slow.  I ended up removing all of ivtv from my machine and then
reinstalling it (using Axel's RPMS).  I had compiled ivtv from cvs when I
first set up mythtv and had then installed the rpms later.  I think I had
more than one of the ivtv binaries lying around :)  Not sure if your issue
is related or not, it just sounded familiar.

Later,
