Just verifying that I understand it correctly: this also happens with a
non-trunk ivtv release, correct? So it is not some ivtv trunk bug that is
hiding somehwere.


Correct, this problem is the same with the trunk as it is with recent
ivtv-0.8

With 16 MB of buffers that should give you somewhere between 10-16 seconds
of buffering I think. I find it hard to believe that MythTV would take so
much time! You can easily check how full the various buffers are by
running v4l2-ctl --log-status.

I'll watch that output during some channel changes tonight to see if there's
any alarms.  I find that the problem happens most when there are other
recordings going on and then it changes channels and records on another
channel.
