Well I officially give up. I believe my PVR-350 card is bad and the manufacturer not only will not honor the warranty, they are extremely rude in the process.
I decided to try some windows pvr solutions including the software that came with card. The card behaved in the same manner. The encoder works fine. When I use the decoder on the other hand. Any interruptions in the mpeg stream (as from a ff/rw/pause/Bus lag/etc) will cause the card to blow up. Of course in windows the result is much more dramatic. Blue screens, freezes, etc. Same behavior 3 different OS's = bad hardware in my book. As soon as I suggested anything about a replacement they stopped answering my emails and when I call they hang up. Buy.com of course will not touch it now, its been too long. I wonder how many other people having problems with the card is because of crappy manufacturing. Any ideas, clues, etc? I'm really at the end of my rope. I really hate to throw away $200 like this.
