[mythtv-users] PVR-150 partial success! but still need help.

[Khanh Tran]

Make sure your tuner type is set right, or better yet, don't specify one
at all to allow the driver to autodetect it.

I've read that some cards (or some versions of ivtv) won't allow you to
capture anything but 720x480 on the PVR-150.  I've captured successfully
at 352x240, but YMMV.
