[mythtv-users] lirc_zilog "chip failed" in latest module + Centos 6

[Michelle Dupuis]

I'm running the latest lirc_zilog (built from linuxtv download) to drive the IR transmitter in my HDPVR, and although the IR transmitting works, I quickly get a chip failed message as shown below.



I assume all of Jarod Wilson's patches are incorproated in the latest linuxTV files (I see a patch from 2009 but that seems dated).



Anyone else have this problem?  Or even better, a solution?
