That's probably the easiest way -- you could also mess around with the
settings using test_ioctl with one channel, then transfer those to the
database for all the channel entries at once with those values. The db
stores all the picture controls as values from 0 - 65535, so you'd have to
translate the ivtv's ranges into that range (ie, what mythtv does internally)
to stick em in the db. Just be something like:
update channel set brightness=32768;
from the mysql command line client, assuming you only have the one pvr card
and you want to change all the brightness settings for all channels. I'll
see about adding a 'Set all channels like this' button once I get around to
making a better OSD menu for all these controls.
