    Behind all live TV there is a green screen hiding, and shifting the picture left or right using the palmod settings will reveal the green screen.

    Did you follow the instructions when upgrading from the old palmod.o?

    you need to do 'mknod /dev/palmod c 125 0' to allow 'live' changes without needing to reboot the tivo to check changes.

    Also you ay need to modify the loadMpegOutput function in rc.arch to show.
    insmod -f /lib/modules/palmod.o `cat /etc/palmod.conf`

    Peter.

    Thanks, Peter! Got it all working after trying in the 190s for the Horizontal Shift setting. Pretty sensitive as there's only a range of about 10 for a picture to even be on screen for me.
