I am using two TVRx modules on the same motherboard to write a 1 second
sample every minute for 30mins. theoretically I should have 60 sample sets,
collectively.
I am able to write the first sample set succesfully but all writes after
that fail!
Please take a moment to look at what I may be doing wrong.
with thanks.
