I have ( had ) two PVR-250's that were working great with 0.3.6w from
Axel.
I purchased a PVR-500 as a replacement because I needed the extra
slot. I tried it with 0.3.6w but had many issues getting both tuners
to work. I had read the 0.3.7<X> series was looking good so I thought
I would try it.
So, now I am running 0.3.7d from Axel and am having a new problem.
After about 5-7 minutes of recording my computer will reboot. I don't
get anything regarding a panic in the logs. I just hear the bios beep
and can watch it reboot. If I am not recording, the box is completely
stable.
I was having spontaneous reboots with a PVR-500 on my K8T800 mobo, that
were driving me nuts. It seems it would record for a long time, or the
box would serve video (nfs) for a long time, but when it did both, it
would reboot anywhere from roughly 6 minutes to three hours.
After months of making small changes (at one point I thought I had it,
only to have it reboot after 3 weeks of stability), what seems to have
finally fixed it was to install a new NIC and disable the integrated
one. I don't know what exactly the problem was (bad network driver,
driver conflict, interrupt conflict) but I haven't had that problem
since.
Don't know if this could apply to you, just something to consider.
Especially if when you record, the data is written out over the net
(streamed to front end or saved to NFS).
