Using Fedora Core 2 Originally installed using Jarods Guide.
Originally I was using 2 BT878 Cards, I recently Bought 2 PVR 250
cards which I believe since they were Gateway OEM cards, that they are
Identified as FreeStyle cards
The Errors are causing Mythbackend to freeze and stop recording shows,
I have submitted this to the IVTV Devel list, but no responses,
wondered if anyone has had issues with these cards or just this issue
and could give me some pointers to fix it
