<pre wrap="">Hello! I am having problem with my mythtv and pvr mce 250 card closed caption. I'm missing letters in the caption often. And I tested it with cable and broadcast and even digital tv. All turned out same result.
Digital tv has closed caption bulit in and their closed caption is perfectly unlike closed caption from mythtv. So I know it is not broadcast issues.

Dan, <br>
Closed Captions are currently broken for PVR-250 & PVR-350 in
IVTV drivers over version 0.10.1 It works OK with a PVR-150 or PVR-500<br>
Currently, version 1.2.0 is included with Kernel 2.6.25, so that was
quite an old version that worked. <br>
<br>
This was the last update from Hans<br>

To find your IVTV version, type dmesg |grep ivtv in a console window.
To find your kernel version, type uname -r<br>
<br>
If I understand right, you have digital OTA stations, picked up by a US
government DTV recevier box and fed into your PVR-250 via an s-video
cable. <br>
An ATSC capture card, like a PcHDtv or an HD Homerun, would pickup the
digital OTA (with captions) and capture it directly, bypassing the DTV
converter box.<br>
<br>
I'm in Canada and I wish I had some ATSC coverage, I'm using satellite
tv right now, so I'm waiting for mythtv support of the HDPVR-1212 (and
a faster frontend to play the h.264 streams)<br>
