I used to have the same problem with ivtv-0.4.0, see
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/ivtv/devel/25249 . I can't
remember seeing this problem after I upgraded to 0.4.1, though.
I recommend that you upgrade to 0.4.1. If that doesn't help report to
the ivtv-devel mailing list, since this is a ivtv issue, not mythtv.
Good luck!
Regards,
Petter
