Hm, I did try that too - I also tried with 'Xv picture controls' both
on and off, but I'll fiddle some more when I get home, thanks for the
suggestions ;)

That seems to be the consensus - I'm surprised, in that I haven't changed
any of the channel 'default' Xv settings, but I guess the proof is in the
pudding - I'll try tonight ;)

Out of interest, should playback filters work? If I wasnt using
hardware scaling I would have expected inverse to reverse the video
but it didn't have any (visible) impact.

Yeah. I'm trying to get 'everything' working so I can put up a step by
step 'my experiences' guide with subjective opinions on whether 
ivtv/cle266/native is better and how well the work with myth music/video/dvd
playback - obviously the cle266 has embryonic GL support, etc, too
so visualisations, etc, may be improved. Right now I'm just trying to
nail down stable basic Myth operation in all 3 modes though.

I'm also hoping to slow down my CPU fan, so I need to take as much load
off as possible. It is way, way, noisy. Louder than the case fan
and hard drive by far.
