</div>Well, not to wish bad things to Mike... but I hope that you do start<br>
having this problem. Maybe then we can get some help on fixing it.<br>
<br>

I don't know where the problem lies, DVB driver changes, or mythTV<br>
changes. But the fact is that mythTV is very unreliable in the<br>
current Mythbuntu packaging. And my configuration worked just fine<br>
until my last update. I have seen the problem on both of my cards, so<br>
I doubt it is a hardware failure of a card. Could be pci bus, I<br>
suppose, but I highly doubt that this many people are encountering<br>
hardware failures at the same time.<br><br></blockquote><div><br></div></div><div>There is more than circumstantial evidence that V4L/DVB has some pretty substantial issues in current Ubuntu and derivatives.
