Downgrade, MythTV 0.12 -> 0.11

Since the latest IVTV drivers (cvs or alpha code) gives me either poor
quality or unusable MPEG2 recordings, what is required to downgrade my
database from 0.12 to 0.11 to move back to the old MythTV and IVTV code?

Thanks,
Steve

I apologize for not being familiar with your problem, but if your problem is
only with the latest ivtv drivers, why not just drop back to the version of
the driver that worked for you?

Have you identified the cause of your MPEG2 problems to be something in MythTV
0.12? I don't understand how poor results with the ivtv driver will be fixed
by downgrading to 0.11 and want to make sure I haven't missed understanding
something important.

I don't think MythTV is causing my poor recording quality; I think, over
many attempts to get things working, I tried downgrading the ivtv drivers
to what I was using previously (with 0.11) and MythTV 0.12 complained about
not being able to set something with ivtv correctly.

I did post a more thorough explaination of what was going on but no one
responded, so downgrading now seems like the only option. I was trying to
figure out what database changes I need to reverse to get back to 0.11.

Thanks,
Steve

everyones help,
