I had the same problem. I downloaded the SiS driver again (Winischhofer) and
now the problem is gone!!

Onderwerp: [mythtv-users] Stripey TV Out on Pundit for xv overlay



Hi, 

I am now the proud owner of an Asus Pundit with a 2.8 Ghz P4 and 512 MB,
plus a PVR350 (which requred some case modding to fit). Before I bought this
case, I spent some time getting the framebuffer out  working on the PVR350
before I bought the Pundit and found the PVR350 to be very jerky when played
back thru my TV. 

So, I tried to get the TV out on the Pundit working. After working out the
right parameters to get the XV overlay working on CRT2 (my TV), I can get
Mplayer and thus mythTV to output a DVD to my TV. Unfortunately the picture
has a number of vertical stripes across the screen where it looks like the
colours are messed up and a lot of snow in the picture. I've tried on 2 TV
sets with both composite and SVideo and I get the same result. The rest of
the X desktop is fine and I'm quite happy with how stable the picture
appears to be via svideo, but its unwatchable via the TV out due to this
corruption on the TV. 

I've tried both the SIS driver that comes with Fedora Core 1, and the driver
on the winshhofer.net site (the binary, not built from source). Has anyone
had this problem before? I've tried both PAL and NTSC outputs from the
svideo (my TV is multisystem) and the same problem occurs.
