[mythtv-users] ATSC Device or resource busy errors

[David Engel]

I've missed a handful of recordings in the last couple of weeks due to
"Device or resource busy" errors on my ATSC cards.  See below for a
snipper from mythbackend.log.  I'm not using multirec, so the card
shouldn't be any contention for the card.  The double "Finished
recording" log message looks a bit strange, though.  Is anyone else
seeing this?
