To clean up some details first:
- do you have the tuner kernel module loaded (lsmod |grep tuner)
- what is your graphics card and what driver are you using with it
- which kdetv video plugin did you try? Were there any differences?
- what do you mean by zipping (probably scanning?)
- and when does it lock up exactly? (at the beginning, after some time, 
etc.)
