I have the same problem , tvtime get normal image w/ green display and
no way to get fullscreen mode with xawtv ... apparently overlay doesnt
work ... (my mb is a MSI 745 SIS (chipset) and video card is a ASUS
nvidia geforce 2 mx400 using Nvidia driver)
Streamer works just as tvtime ...
I use the latest snapshots availables from bytesex.org
