It's capable of showing two different lengths because it needs to be, to 
handle PAL and NTSC properly.  The reason it's showing a different time is 
that the ivtv driver is broken and not reporting if it's in PAL or NTSC mode 
properly.  There is no issue in myth.

Why do I get blamed every time Chris incompetently breaks more stuff in the 
driver?  It just doesn't make sense to me.
