It could also be due to this old spam that is emitted by the backend whenever
a recording with the ivtv driver is started:
*********************** WARNING ***********************
ivtv drivers prior to 0.10.0 can cause lockups when
reading VBI. Drivers between 0.10.5 and 1.0.3+ do not
properly capture VBI data on PVR-250 and PVR-350 cards.
There was a problem with some ivtv drivers versions a while ago. But that was
fixed and current drivers work well (for me at least).
