Yep, the patch has sorted out my problem too.

My problem was that I was getting a 0 byte file from /dev/video0, but
only after changing the channels a couple of times. It would also
randomly come good after a couple more channel changes.

With the patch I haven't had a problem after 20 or so channel changes.

Hope that helps,

Ross
