[mythtv-users] Mangled screen video with Live TV or recorded programs

A couple of weeks ago, I started experiencing "mangled" video in
some recordings.  I'm running on FC5 with the atrpms.  I think I've
tracked this to updating to the mythtv 0.20-143 rpm which I did on
October 29.  Recordings before that date have no trouble, *some*
afterwards do.  I was also able to confirm that the problem happens
with LiveTV but does not appear on the "real" TV hooked up to the
same antenna/cable.

The mangling is intermittent.  I'll watch fine for several minutes,
then the frame gets mildly jumbled, then it goes back to normal.  I
could probably provide a suitably downsampled copy of a few seconds
worth of video to anyone who wants to see the effect.

I'm not sure how to track this down.  Any clues?
