[mythtv-users] HVR-2250 blue recordings

hi,
I have the same tuner ... running fedora 14 (64bit) ... I also have a 
dedicated analog tuner (PVR150) with the 2250 so the 2250 (both tuners) 
is dedicated to digital only. I did notice that running the myth-setup 
missed up the 2250 tuners sometimes ... simple reboot fixed it.
