I was thinking that the v4l1 struct definitions changed in 0.2.x as well.

I suspect in Overlay mode, Xv is interpreting the YUV data incorrectly. The image is squished to 75% of original (or thereabouts) horizontally. This doesn't happen with the 0.1.x series saa7134 driver, running xawtv 3.81. Curious, does it happen only with NVidia cards, or other cards as well?
