[mythtv-users] green video from cat /dev/video0

I'm trying to split my video storage from my OS and data to see if it
fixes my bad video problems on some recordings. I installed a new
smaller drive for the OS. I figured I'd also upgrade everything. I
installed CentOS 5.4 and installed all the packages for myth. Imported
my database, etc, etc. I also installed the latest ivtv packages. 

When I cat test videos all I'm getting in the resulting video is a green
picture. I've compared my modprobe.conf with my old one and it looks
good. The /dev/video? devices appear to be there. ivtv modules appear to
be loaded. 

I have a PVR150/250/350. 

myth recording do not work, which is why I started testing. 

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
James
