[mythtv-users] MPEG1 setting on PVR-250?!?

I'd like my pvr-250 to encode and output to a file mpeg1 and not mpeg2.  Is
there a way to do this with the ivtv drivers?  I tried test_ioctl -c
stream_type=2, and the file it outputs appears to be mpeg1 but the image is
very messed up.  Are there other special control settings I need to do?  I
don't really want real high quality for my recordings and I would like to be
able to burn them straight to VCD (not SVCD).  Just FYI standard mpeg2 works
file.

thanks for any help you can provide,
Joshua
