I have a pvr250 and wonder if the following output common when

lirc seems to work (lircd-0.8.0-CVS).
Last night my mythbox became unresponsive during a recording and
"*ivtv0* warning: *ENC Stream* 0 OVERFLOW #0: Stealing a Buffer"
was spewing to the console. Alot of my recordings seem to have
skips in them also.
Any Ideas?

bttv: disagrees about version of symbol tveeprom_hauppauge_analog
Your lirc device is loading the bttv module (a known problem
somewhere or another that has since been resolved) and the bttv
module doesn't like ivtv's version of tveeprom_hauppauge_analog.
This has also been fixed. If it works the way it is, I wouldn't
worry about it. If it stops working, its probably time to
upgrade kernel, v4l and/or ivtv.
My distro is pretty up to date, kernel is 2.6.14-1.1637_FC4, ivtv
version 4.0 Unless you mean trying 5.x.
0.5.x is not really something I'd recommend for a non-development
machine. I know I had the tveeprom version problem and eventually
settled on 2.6.13-1.1526 and the ivtv 0.4 package from atrpms to keep
from having the version problem. For me, it was a critical issue, as
my cx88xx module threw the same error and kept my HD3000 from
working. I believe there is a workaround of some type by removing
the versioning info for tveeprom_hauppauge_analog from /lib/module/
`uname -r`/build/Module.symvers. I've not tried it, so I can't vouch
for it.
I'm not sure where or when the bttv loading with lirc problem was
fixed, as I use an MCE remote instead of the pvr remote.
As for the stealing buffers and skips, it looks like you ran out
of memory. There are various buffer options you can try. Search
the wiki and/or the archives of ivtv-dev, or add more memory.
I would have thought 512M would be enough for mythfrontend/backend
machine. I have fluxbox as the window manager.
Although I do have it set so mythcomflag runs when the recording
starts.
I gave up getting my machine to run well with 512 and bumped it to
1GB. Especially if you have tuned mysql with the options that Jarod
recommends. I know it should work at 512, but it was easier to buy
more memory than tune it down.
Could loading the bttv module impact recording quality? I am
begining to wonder if the recording quality issues began when I set
up lirc. Right around the same time the ms said, "I don't like how
much space the keyboard takes up on the coffee table."
As for the jumps, they're more of a flash, a flash of I don't know
what?
Here is a 4s snippet of a recording, there is flash at 3s.

Any ideas?
