</div>I don't think they were fixed *in MythTV* unless I'm mistaken. They<br>
were fixed in the firmware. Right from the link you provided above it<br>
says:<br>
<br>
Firmware Version Stability<br>
[..]<br>
Version 1.7.1, dated March 25, 2012, stability is 'much improved'.<br>
Previous versions would not handle the input signal switching its<br>
resolution making it hard to use reliably in MythTV. 1.7.1 now it<br>
rides right through without exiting the recording!<br>

</div>Yes, I definitely recommend that. You also need to have the Linux<br>
kernel at 3.3 or later.<br>

if they overheated. All I had to do is turn the unit on its side to
improve airflow since all the vents were on the bottom, and the problems
went away for me. It's worth a shot.<br><br><br></div></div>
