MIchael,
   Sorry you're having these problems. I've been through the same sort
of thing a number of times.

1) Until you can cat ivtv output to a file and get video in that file
don't bother with MythTV.

2) After you get file playback working my experience is that you
should delete your current cards and connetions, leaving the Zap2It
stuff alone, and then recreate the cards and connections.

   Can you rmmod all the ivtv modules - all of them - and then
modprobe ivtv again and post the output in dmesg? do an lsmod ahead of
the modprobe so ensure everything is really unloaded.

Cheers,
Mark
