With options ivtv enc_vbi_buffers=16 enc_mpg_buffers=16 I stopped seeing the above problem. Now I'm trying with the default values (1 and 4, I believe) and instead am changing the latency value for my hard drive controller from 32 to 128 with setpci -s 01:0b.0 latency_timer=80 (My PVR-350 is at 64.) I'll report back whether this solves the problem. Dan _______________________________________________ ivtv-devel mailing list [email protected] http://ivtvdriver.org/mailman/listinfo/ivtv-devel
