Have done a new installation and guess what...problem occurs again.

Looks like it depends on some factors:

- First I used open source driver for nvidia, later switched to
proprietary one

- fiddled around with different resolutions for PAL TV

So if you get bit by the bug check the above solution from Bart.

Title:
  LiveTv / recording using PVR-150/500 unviewable / scrambled

Status in “mythtv” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: mythtv

  I'm running MythBuntu 8.10 without a problem.
  Upgrading to 9.04 or 9.10 causes my livetv to be very distorted and basically unviewable.

  Today I attempted a new 10.04 beta install to see if anything has
  changed. My problem persists.

  What I find strange is that when viewing my /dev/videox directly using VLC, I can view the channel perfectly.
  However, when I first try to view a channel with MythTV and then try to view it using VLC, I get identical problems on the channel.

  On the other input on the same card, if I haven't used/tried that in mythtv yet, I can use VLC again without a problem.
  The errors VLC gives (when first viewing the channel with mythtv and then VLC):

  I would think this is not driver or kernel related, since playing TV
  directly from VLC works. Once I try mythtv, I can't play TV (decently)
  using any program from that point, untill a system reboot.
