Included with what? I can't find any such perl script on my system. I
have ivtv 0.8.1 installed from atrpms.

I'd happily settle for the perl script.

I installed from the tarball.  If the scripts don't come with the atrpms distribution then just download the tarball and extract them from there.

As an aside, I'm still wondering about the utility of hardware mpeg
encoding. The raw mpeg stream from the PVR-150 takes up on the order
of 3 gb of diskspace an hour, so you still need to further encode PVR
output, either on the fly with mencoder or later with avidemux from
the humongous disk file. Presumably the latter approach gives better
results, but is there that much difference and/or is it worth trouble,
given the middling quality of analog TV input? I also have a Pinnacle
card, which works well with tvtime, and on-the-fly mpeg2 encoding done
in software certainly is feasible on my pentium IV box. Thoughts on
this?

The bit rate can be adjusted using ivtvctl as described in Bob's post.
