Comment (by Andy Harvey <Andy@…>):

 The fix you supplied works. Thanks for your great support.
 I'll leave my system running with that fix to check stability.

 The card is a 'Fushicai usbtv007'.  See
 https://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Easycap#USBTV007_EasyCAP

 I have put the output from dd if=/dev/video0 of=video0.raw to Dropbox
 here:

 This is not playable via mplayer.

 There is also the output from 'mplayer -v tv://' which has some more info.
 This plays the video fine.

 The mythtv setup is as follows:

 Capture Card Setup


 {{{

 Record Profiles->Software Encoders(v4l based)->Default->Video Compression

 {{{

 Live TV is the same as default.
 The input used is the composite.


 Let me know if there's more you need.
