Is there anything else that a non-programmer can do to help resolve the
craches with the full live-tv buffer? There was another tread on this
issue on the user list last week. I know you (Isaac) don't have the
problem on your machine but apparently quite a few do. I have personally
seen this on 3 different backend machines (one with a PVR150, a 250 and
one with a PVR350, so all ivtv cards). Would it be usefull to provide
another backtrace on this? 
Can a few other people on this list try to lower the size of their live
tv buffer and see if live-tv keeps working when it reaches max size and
report back?

If I remember correctly the problem first appeared a few days before
the .17 release around the same time there where playback problems at
the end of a recording. That problem was fixed before the .17 release
but i was thinking it might be related...
