[mythtv-users] HDPVR stops after 1-10 minutes of recording time

Sun Oct 31 20:42:40 UTC 2010

I have been having trouble with my HDPVR in that it stops recording
between 1 and 10 minutes after it starts. I have attached the box to a
Windows 7 machine and updated the firmware with a report of success.
I have compiled the driver into the kernel on fresh installs of Ubuntu
9.10 and 10.04 against Myth 0.23.1.  On 10.10, I simply used the
drivers that came with and compiled from mythtv 0.24 trunk.  Below is
the output from mythbackend.log for the latter.

Currently I am working with an FE/BE 0.24 trunk.  The only tuner
installed is the HDPVR.

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
