I am having the same "buffers are full" issue, yesterday I installed IVTV trunk (0.8.3, 3715) and increased buffers to 16. It seems better but I'm still getting the errors. I wonder if increasing buffers even more would help.
I think this is a mythtv 0.20 issue, looking at my logs most of these buffer errors seem to happen at the start/end of recordings and only with simultaneous recordings: - at 20:00:00 started recording Australian Open and Heroes - at 21:00 Heroes ends, Futurama starts Jan 22 21:01:04 masterbe kernel: ivtv1: All encoder MPEG stream buffers are full.

I have 1 PVR-150 and a PVR-500 in master backend, I also have a PVR-350 in slave backend/frontend. On 1/22/07, Hans Verkuil <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

It certainly affected vdr, so it might affect MythTV in the same way.
