[mythtv-users] PVR250 with distorted audio every 30-40 seconds

[tombarber]

I had the same problem i found a solution on another forum that fixed
the problem, there is a transistor that over heats on the right side of
the card, and a fan over the top will solve this audio problem.

I still get very random erratic crashes that completely freeze my system
which may or may not be associated with this card, will find out soon.
