[Paul Fielding]

>From what I can tell I'm running ivtv 2.6.13.2-chw-3 .   Is this not recent enough?  (I'm running Knoppmyth).  Or am I missing something I need to set.

It's the playback of transcoded material brought over from another box that giving me a hard time.... *shrug*

  Install John Harvey's ivtvdev X driver for the PVR-350.
