[mythtv-users] help with pvr-250 fine tuning

[Wayne Hogue]

I've got everything setup and recording, however the video has some visible 
horizonal lines when there is high speed movement.  The faster the objects 
move, the more noticable the lines.

Here is a dump of test_ioctl -a

I have tried various bitrates and still the same problem.

Any help is appreciated.
