By "DMA problem" I meant "problem with the DMA related driver routines". Jon Burgess fixed those about a month ago, but maybe some corner case is still buggy? Is there anything I can test to check if this the problem? I assume that is beyond my skills. Anyway, the programs (or services or channel

If you get this errors with the signal from above, the frontend is not the problem. It could be a DMA problem. I don't think so. If there's a DMA problem the RTL recording should be broken also. Even if I swap the cards so that the "broken" records RTL and the "fine" one records Sat1 the error wi
