Good point about the v4l2.  Most people haven't been reporting just
exactly how they're doing it.  I personally have my kernel patched with
v4l2 and I'm one of those with lots of problems.  Just viewing the EPG
without even moving around or anything myth will crap out within 10
seconds or so and I have to reboot.  Clicking on "watch recordings" seems
to always kill the current recording in progress.
