[mythtv-users] Recording stops once I start watching the recording??

[Bruce Dillahunty]

I've been seeing the same thing... its intermittent, but I've had  
several "stops" trying to watch the same recording that is being  
recorded (time shifting a bit).

I don't know if watching another recording does it.

I don't have a 350, so that's not common, but I am using XmVC (does  
that apply???).

Running recent CVS (last week), with a M179 card and ivtv.

Just another data-point.
