I've just tried to reproduce the problem in xawtv and in mplayer - 
unsuccessfully.  I built vanilla 2.6.15, compiled pvrusb2.ko for it 
(20060102A sources) and used all other modules strictly from that kernel. 
It's working here.  I tried two different PVR USB2 devices (they have 
different tuner sections), same successful behavior each time.

Unfortunately my test system is not set up for MythTV.  Are you able to 
reproduce the problem with xawtv and/or mplayer?  Can *anyone* reproduce 
this problem?
