Sorry, that's a fact of life.  There's always going to be a slight delay
when you're using one of these cards.  The easiest way to fix this is to get
a cheap framegrabber card, and use that for your PS2.  You can then use
xawtv or tvtime with the framegrabber card, and let MythTV keep using the
PVR-150.
