[mythtv-users] pvr250 buffers

[Jayson Garrell]

I've been running mythtv for awhile now. Thanks for the great software!
So far I have been using a Hauppauge 401, bttv. I have just purchased
one of the OEM FreeStyle cards off of ebay, great buy BTW. The card
seems to be working fine and configuring mythtv to use the card was
painless. I am having a small problem though, I have searched mail
archives googled and read a few docs but the anwser still eludes me. If
any one can help I would apperciate it very much.

Since I have installed the pvr250 i'm getting a lot of

ivtv: Not enough free buffers, stream 0

errors in my logs. I saw the mpg_buffers=xx option on the ivtv home page
but that option didn't seem to work. The rocording still are good but
after that message starts to apper in the logs, mythbackend goes from
aprox 4%+- cpu usage to 60%+- cpu usage, on my dual 500piii backend.

If I stop mythbackend and reload the ivtv module all is good until that
error returns.

If any one else has seen this or can point me in the right direction I
would apperciate it.

Thank you
