#677: Backend dies at start of recording / Live TV with DVB
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------

     Type:  defect       |      Status:  new    
 Priority:  minor        |   Milestone:  unknown
Component:  mythtv       |     Version:  head   
 Severity:  medium       |  
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
I've been running SVN7738 for a while without problems. Two days ago, live
 TV started killing the backend. I'm running Gentoo on the backend, with 2
 DVB cards and a vanilla 2.6.13 kernel. The frontend's a diskless VIA EPIA
 running Gentoo and the same SVN release.

 If I start live TV, I get a blank screen for several seconds (sometimes
 even an OSD) before I get a "backend has gone away" type message. I have
 also tried scheduling records via Mythweb. Once again, the backend dies at
 the beginning of the recording. I do get some recorded data though - the
 files get to a few MB before the backend dies. Note that one channel seems
 to be a problem (channel 7) - I have successfully scheduled recordings for
 other channels.

 I shall attach some backend logs shortly.

 Cheers,

 Jon
