All i know is that i've set the all 4 of the profiles in recording 
profiles to be 720x576.
I still get black bar at the bottom of the screen and it the recorded 
mpeg.
If i set the standard with ivtvctl/test_ioctl, to 720x576, and cat 
/dev/video0 > /dev/video16
then i get full screen, no black bar.
If start watching live tv and run ivtvctl/test_ioctl i get

ioctl: VIDIOC_G_FMT
         Type   : Video Capture
         Width  : 480
         Height : 480

am i missing something ? does any body else have this problem (pal 
people)?
