[mythtv-users] Does anyone have a working dual pvr-250 setup?

My mythtv box has been broken for two weeks now and no one seems to be 
attempting to fix it on the ivtv driver side of development.  I'm back 
to running two vcr's.  All I get are the log messages below and 0 MB 
files.  If two shows are recorded at the same time and are the same 
length, both get recorded.  Then everything else is 0 MB.  It would be 
less upsetting if it wasn't for the fact that it worked 99.9% of the 
time until I tried to update mythtv and ivtv about two weeks ago.  Does 
anyone have a tarball for the driver that still works?  I tried 
reverting to an older version of cvs but it complained that some files 
were no longer in the repository and wouldn't compile.

I don't believe its a myth problem, the developer for ivtv is supposed 
to be adding a bunch of new features before Thanksgiving and nothing 
new has been commited to cvs since I updated to this broken version.  
I'd really appreciate a working tarball or a work around if anyone has 
one.

BTW, I tried to current tarball from the ivtv site and cvs as of 9:00 
pm EST with no better luck.

Thanks,
Vinton
