I haven't tried this yet but can give it a go.

After trying to figure out why tv support wasn't there I've added the
" --enable-tv-bsdbt848" to the configure args and it's warking
flawlessly on my AMD64 box. This is 0.99.7_6. The output is crystal
clear here.

Have you tried with xawtv and fxtv? Does the problem only show with
mplayer? What other build options did you enable when building the
software?

I have a similar config except set for Europe.

Yes, it rocks. I've been using xawtv for a month and mplayer is so
much better. :)

Cheers,
