I posted my reply with the wrong "from address" so it got caught by the
mailing list system. I repost it with the correct source address here and add
some info at the end.

No, ofcourse not. That was not the main issue of this mail. Sorry if it
sounded like that. I thought I'd have a closer look at the crashes first with
gdb to either fix the problem myself or give you a good stack trace to work
with. I then thought it would be best to get the CVS version to get the
latest code to debug. Unfortunately I ran into the sound problem first.

So, nothing related to this has changed in MythTV ? I'm then still confused
why it worked before upgrading to the CVS version. Maybe just bad luck then
;-) I didn't reload the msp-driver on purpose before writing this mail in
case a test against the old driver had been requested. I have already
compiled the latest CVS version of the ivtv driver and will test it right
away. I'll be back...
----------------------
And now I'm back after testing. I rebooted the computer and loaded the new
ivtv driver. And ofcourse it now works. It was a rather strange error though.
Sorry for making noise on the mailing list and thank you for your answers
(Isaac and Anduin). I will now crawl back to where I came from and get back
only when I have something importent to say ;-)
Best regards,
Tobias
