I installed .25 last week and could not get it to work with my HDPVR.  I upgraded to .25.1 and now it's working great (based on 2 days of experience)...

Don't bother with .25

Worse. I've documented this in the mailing list, but basically, MythTV
can no longer be trusted to record anything. Some things work, some
don't, some show up as being recorded in the Upcoming Recordings and
"Status" mythweb pages, but no file or entry in the 'recorded'
database is made for that recording. I've gone and built a previous
version to get things to at least work like they did before which was
way more reliable.

ubuntu
2.6.32-24-generic
vendor_id = 0x000025f2 model_id = 0x0000f740
I believe Firmware 1.5.7
