I got the effect described above when i was playing with pci latency
values, not just with the tvcard's but the whole system's. The default
values where ok for me.

Here are two links with some info that may help you find out the correct
values:
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-hw2.html
http://www.reric.net/linux/pci_latency.html


But maybe in your case the problem is not with the latency values but it
worth a try.
