The problem I'm seeing happens on both prerecorded shows and Live TV. 
Also, it's not quite like dropped frames - the image is jerky, but 
consistently so. It *never* has periods of smooth motion. Maybe it's 
dropping every other or every third frame. As I said, it's hard to describe.

With xine playing DVD images I needed to do an 'ivtvctl 
--set-yuv-mode=mode=1' to get it to play smoothly, but the problem I was 
having there isn't the same as what I'm seeing with MythTV.
