[mythtv-users] ivtv: Not enough free buffers, stream 0

I've been monitoring the frequency of not enough free buffers errors on
my Hauppauge PVR-250 Myth box:
Oct 2 00:00:02 slinky kernel: ivtv: Not enough free buffers, stream 0
Oct 2 00:00:03 slinky last message repeated 17 times
And it seems that I only get them at back-to-back recording startup. I
will be posting to ivtv, but wondered if anyone else was seeing this.
Modules.conf is:
alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
options ivtv debug=1 mpg_buffers=90
add above ivtv msp3400 saa7115 tuner
My config is:
Linux version 2.4.21 (root at slinky) (gcc version 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian
prerelease)) #1
AMD Athlon XP 1600+
K7S5A Pro
Ensoniq AudioPCI (SigmaTel STAC9721/23)
Onboard SiS 900 PCI Fast Ethernet
ATI Remote Wonder USB Remote
MSI nvidia Geforce4 MX440-SE
Main 13gb disk (OS, MySQL) on IDE channel 1, shared with DVD-ROM.
read test 18.55mb/s
Spool, LVM appended, Dual WDC WD1200JB drives.
read test 41.56mb/s
MySQL, MythFrontend, and MythBackend run on the same system, and the
spool is local.
It should be noted that this problem happens even when no playback is
happening. I have also disabled the ATI TV Wonder VE as it was more
hassle than it is worth.
