I'm not sure if i'm posting to the right list or not. But I've pretty much exhausted my trouble shooting skills so I thought I'd see if someone might
be able to help.

I have the card mentioned and can't get any clean steams out of it. Every single channel comes accross with lots of artifacts. Only other HD tuner in the house is the Time Warner HD PVR and it works fine. I've given this
card as much signal as I possibly can. Yes, this is cable and it's an
unencrypted signal.

I'm primarily trying to set this up in MythTV but even steams captured
straight from dvr0 are not right.  As far as I can tell with azap I'm
getting things right..

an example of the output is here -> http://www.wiltanger.com/hdtv/title3.avi

I just don't know what to look for next.  Is it just a bum card?  Or is
there something else I can do?  I'm running cvs  v4l-dvb from today.
Based on your problem description, I don't think that the driver is the problem. here. It seems that you are experiencing a weak signal. I too, was experiencing problems like this before I purchased a drop-amp, but the driver DOES work.

I recommend that you test the card using the windows driver... You will probably notice the same problems. There is one difference, however... The windows driver uses DxVA for the mpeg decoding. This isn't always possible when using linux, due to the proprietary video drivers out there. :-(

So, unfortunately, I dont think your situation can be helped without amplifying the signal.
