[mythtv-users] Trouble recording B&W movies (old WinTV card)

I'm capturing analog NTSC with an old WinTV card (Bt 878). It seems to work
fine for everything except old black & white movies. Recent attempts to
record "Notorious" and "Arsenic and Old Lace" on different days both failed,
capturing only broken blocks of video and chyopped audio -- although color
lead-ins captured fine. Has anyone else seen a similar problem, or does
anyone have suggestions for troubleshooting?

Mythfilldatabase is not running during the record. The machine is a P4 3 GHz
with plenty of disk space and an HD-3000, running current svn.

Thanks!
