I seem to be having a problem installing myth tv (with a PVR-350 on FC4). This 
is my first attempt of installing myth tv.
I have been following the Fedora Myth(TV)ology :: HOWTO
I have been successful to the point of seeing the test image on my tv, and also 
to play video off the card right back out to my tv.
My problem comes when I try to view a test capture with mplayer.
Below is what comes up in the shell... Mplayer just gives me a blank picture.

[root at mythone mythtv]# mplayer -vo x11 /tmp/test_capture.mpg

Can anyone give me a hint of what is wrong and how to fix it?
Thank you,
