Thanks.<br></blockquote> <br> I wish I had a solution for you, but all I can say is that I, too, have been experiencing this problem since day one - I believe that it is related to the
PVR-350 somehow, but don't know enough to comment further.<br> <br> I understand that improvements have been made to the Myth/PVR-350 combo in recent SVN builds, but I'm currently holding out for the next stable branch/release/insert-appropriate-terminology-here. <br> <br> Before upgrading to ivtv-0.4.0, I also encountered frequent (i.e., at least once per day) hard-and-complete lockups of the PVR-350 framebuffer when watching recordings - the OSD would pop up if I pressed rewind, but the actual buffer was locked. As you can imagine, this made for some stressfull "will it or won't it?" moments whenever it would freeze.<br> <br> Since upgrading to 0.4.0, the hard lockups have been much less frequent, perhaps once per viewing week. Still not gone, but better.<br> <br> My $0.02.<br> <br> Best,<br> Steve<br><br></div><p>
