<div>I have a HDPVR as one of my recorders. Recently, and with
increasing frequency, recordings on it fail. This is not the
normal issue with the wall-wart failing as I am powering it
from USB these days (thanks to the helpful advice of some
people on this list). </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Rebooting the system fixes the problem and the HDPVR
records like a champ for a x days, then develops the same
problem and needs a reboot. As noted, the mean of x seems to
be decreasing. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>An example log entry from when this happens is below. Any
advice on how to troubleshoot this?

<p>I looked up the amperage of a usb port and from what I see they
only provide 0.5 amps. The original HDPVR needed I think, 2.0
amps.. I really think you should look there first. I put a moldex
connector in my PC, and run it off the main power supply.
