Final follow-up<br>
<br>
Problem solved.<br>
<br>
First, this does appear to be a kernel issue with bttv and v4l1:<br>
<a href="http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-kernel/2008/8/4/2806884" target="_blank">http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-kernel/2008/8/4/2806884</a><br>
<br>
Using kernel version 2.6.24 works fine.<br>
<br>
In addition, patching mythtv to use v4l2 for bttv cards allows it to<br>
work with kernels >= <a href="http://2.6.25." target="_blank">2.6.25.</a> This also reduced my CPU time while<br>
recording from 40% to 25% (Sempron 2400+)<br>

I have not yet experienced any channel changing errors as documented<br>
