I'm not quite sure if this is a mythtv or a ivtv bug but......

There I was watching a previously recorded show, ff a bit and the mythtv
frontend just hung, a look in the (mythtv frontend) log shows

IVTV_IOC_GET_TIMING: Input/output error

There are no errors from dmesg

A reboot later (killing the frontend and restarting it didn't work, it
wouldn't even play 'live' TV) then play the same show and it does it again
(with the same error).

A quick google throws up this email:

Did anything come of this? Is there a fix in later versions? I've not
updated to the latest release(s) as they seem mostly to be working towards
getting the 150/500 working and as 0.3.2c works perfectly for me (for the
pvr-350) I saw no reason in it.
 
For reference I am using a Nova-T and PCR-350 in a Asus Pundit-R with ivtv
0.3.2 (c), kernel 2.6.11-rc2-bk3-20050125153357-default, mythtv 0.17 and
linuxtv-dvb-1.1.1 on SuSE 9.1

FWIW a remote frontend plays with sign of anything going wrong.

Thanks

David
