<div>Is anyone else experiencing issues with their HD-PVR's
and/or LIRC under the 4.3.x kernel? I've had a fairly stable
setup with 2x HD-PVR's and a mceusb IR receiver/blaster for a
several years. After recently upgrading to Fedora 23 from 22,
and with it the 4.3 I've had some show stopper issues. The
HD-PVR's will lock up after a few minutes of use consistently
and need a power cycle to fix and my IR receiver started
acting erratically, recording multiple key presses when they
were only pressed once and not detecting others. I believe the
issue is all related to the HD-PVR's however as I have another
Fedora 23 system running 4.3.3 with an identical mceusb IR
receiver/remote combination (but no HD-PVR's) which has no
problems at all (and yes I've swapped the hardware). It seems
someone has reported a similar/same issue with Debian and 4.3:

<div>As a workaround I've downgraded to a 4.2 kernel and all my
HD-PVR/LIRC issues went away. Although, after 8-9 days both of
my HD-PVR's stopped getting a lock at the same time and the
only fix I was able to find was a reboot. Nothing in logs
that helped either. I've had the odd lockup every once in
awhile but never that happen so I've not sure 4.2 works
entirely reliably either.<br data-mce-bogus="1">

Funny you should mention this. I am sitting at my desk trying to
debug this very same issue right now.<br>
<br>
I am also on Fedora 23 x86_64 w/ 2 HDPVRs and the 4.3.x kernels. I
am not using lirc at all however. My FC23 system was very stable
with the 4.2.x kernels. <br>
<br>
I just downloaded the last 4.2.x kernel from Koji in hopes of
resolving the hangs based on the same Debian error report. <br>
<br>
In my logs for mythbackend, I am seeing this error:<br>

I am not really sure where to go other than open a ticket with the
Fedora team.<br>
