I began to see this behaviour with the introduction of ivtv 0.4. I began
to notice out of sync frames
This appears to be an issue with ivtv 0.4 from what I can tell. If
anyone can help pinpoint what version this behviour was introduced that
would help track down and fix the issue. Post your findings on the
ivtv-devel list.
It appears that the behaviour only appears when encoding at a moderatly
low resolution. Perhaps anything less than 720x480.
I see it consistently when encoding at 640x480 using DVD or MPEG-PS and
6000-9000 vbr.
There is a thread on ivtv-devel regarding this issue, the following link
also provides a video example and screen shot of what I was seeing.
