Yes. Me.

When I look TV with mythtv the machine reboots after ~10 Minutes without
a warning.


To catch the problem I tried with

mplayer /dev/video0

I believed it to work, but after some hours the machine rebooted also.


Then I tried to "simulate" watching TV and put some load on the machine
without really using a player:

gzip < /dev/video | bzip > /dev/null

No reboots.

Nothing in the logs (certainly).


I am absolutely unexperienced with MythTV, just bought a new PVR500 and
try my best, however, I am linux user for 5 years. The board is an old
fashioned Asus A7V (which I believe being to slow, but I first wanted to
set up the machine and then buy a new board).

System is Debian Sid. I followed lots of tutorials to get MythTV
running, so I cannot tell you Version numbers at all (Machine not
available at the moment)

Bye,
Ratti
