[mythtv-users] Weird video problem

How exactly did you do this?  I created the system using Jarod's atrpms
install and I have rebuilt several times to try to get 0.9.11 to install.  I
finally did find both a rpm and tar file for bttv-0.9.11 but it complains
about the kernel.  I rolled back the kernel and everything blew up big
time...

So, is there a fix for this re screen problem like 0.9.13?  Or a way to get
9.11 to install on the latest kernel from apt-get?

This happened to me often with bttv-0.9.12. In fact, it could
even screw up during a recording so any 3 hour sport was
almost sure to have screwy colors by the end. The fix for me
was to roll back to bttv-0.9.11. Haven't seen it since.
