[mythtv-users] Firewire capture locking backend

[Gerald Brandt]

Hi,

When I'm watching live tv, if I change the channel 3 times, on the third time, I get a video timeout.  Trying to go back to live tv tells me the tuner is already in use.

When I boot the system, plugreport gives me:

Node 1 GUID 0x0023a3fffe5308c7
------------------------------
oMPR n_plugs=1, data_rate=2, bcast_channel=63
oPCR[0] online=1, bcast_connection=0, n_p2p_connections=0
	channel=63, data_rate=0, overhead_id=0, payload=376
iMPR n_plugs=0, data_rate=2

Node 2 GUID 0x002210fffe57348f
------------------------------
oMPR n_plugs=1, data_rate=2, bcast_channel=63
oPCR[0] online=1, bcast_connection=0, n_p2p_connections=0
	channel=62, data_rate=0, overhead_id=0, payload=376
iMPR n_plugs=0, data_rate=2


After a tuner/mythbackend lockup, plugreport gives me:

Node 1 GUID 0x0023a3fffe5308c7
------------------------------
oMPR n_plugs=1, data_rate=2, bcast_channel=63
oPCR[0] online=1, bcast_connection=0, n_p2p_connections=0
	channel=62, data_rate=0, overhead_id=0, payload=376
iMPR n_plugs=0, data_rate=2

Node 2 GUID 0x002210fffe57348f
------------------------------
oMPR n_plugs=1, data_rate=2, bcast_channel=63
oPCR[0] online=1, bcast_connection=0, n_p2p_connections=1
	channel=2, data_rate=1, overhead_id=0, payload=376
iMPR n_plugs=0, data_rate=2

Im my case, node 1 was alredy recording, and node 2 was supposed to do livetv.  Plug report shows the firewire info chnaging.  Why does MythTV keep changing from broadcsat to P2P at every channel change, and why does it get stuck there?
