[mythtv-users] Green Screen Of Death, Again !

It seems that every now and then my system decides to record a program 
and I get nothing but a green screen and any program recorded after 
that ends up recorded in black and white.

I have been able to track down the error in my kern.log at the time the 
screen goes green.  Here is a snip of the log ...

Feb 25 15:59:53 ]mythtv kernel: bttv0: irq: SCERR risc_count=1f85c008
Feb 25 15:59:53 ]mythtv last message repeated 4 times
Feb 25 15:59:53 ]mythtv kernel: bttv0: aiee: error loops
Feb 25 15:59:53 ]mythtv kernel: bttv0: irq: SCERR risc_count=1f85c054
Feb 25 15:59:53 ]mythtv kernel: bttv0: aiee: error loops
Feb 25 15:59:53 ]mythtv kernel: bttv0: resetting chip
Feb 25 15:59:53 ]mythtv kernel: bttv0: PLL can sleep, using XTAL 
(28636363).

Seems like when the chip resets itself it seems to not be choosing the 
proper input.  Here are my system specs ..

Asus P4S533-MX Mobo with 2.4 P4
512 Mb of Memory
Nvidia Gforce 440
Leadtek Winfast 2000/XP Tuner Card

I have the following loaded with my modules and bttv ...

options bttv card=34 tuner=2

If anyone has an answer to the above problem I would greatly appreciate 
it.
