Hey All,

I just upgraded to .15 via the atrpm repository earlier this week.  Everything 
has been running great, until today.  I had a mythtranscode job completely 
lock up my system.  I had power cycle the system (i know is bad but I let it 
run for 6 hours to see if the transcode would finish). Anyway now that it has 
come back up all I have is static.  I check my ivtv setting with test_ioctl 
and nothing had changed there. I also tested the cable by plugging it in to 
the tv directly (no problem there). I tried resetting my ivtv settings 
according to Jarod's guide, still nothing but static (checked with 
cat /dev/video0 > test.mpg)  . I also rmmod/modprobed ivtv each time.  Here 
are my ivtv versions:

ivtv-firmware-2.02.023-3.at
ivtv-0.1.9-25.rhfc1.at
ivtv-kmdl-2.4.22-1.2174.nptl_37.rhfc1.at-0.1.9-25.rhfc1.at

At this point I dont know if its ivtv or myth or what.  I get static in myth 
and directly from /dev/video0 with the backend off. I am at a loss and don't 
want to have to rebuild from scratch.  Please help....

Thanks,
b bradley
