[mythtv-users] Adjusting Brightness, Contrast, etc. Per Card?

Dunno, curious myself, anybody fooled with these settings as described 
in /usr/src/linux-2.4.x/Documentation/video4linux/bttv/Insmod-options

                chroma_agc=0/1  AGC of chroma signal, off by default.
                adc_crush=0/1   Luminance ADC crush, on by default.

changing these bttv.o module settings, shouldn't effect the pvr-250, 
correct?

Wonder if turning on automatic gain control for chroma would have a good 
or bad effect?  anybody done this?
