When my tv picture gets over a certain size, say when I enter fullscreen mode using xawtv or just resize my window over a certain point, most of the picture turns black and I get only a small strip of tv picture to the left of xawtv's window. TV was working well under 2.4.2.
I reported this bug before for 2.4.3 and a patch which fixed (or worked around) this problem was posted. The patch still works for 2.4.4

Since the seems to be a VIA problem: I have a VIA MPV3 motherboard using an AMD K6-2 processor. My TV card is a Hauppage WinTV.
