Your not alone. I'm seeing the exact same issue. It seems to mostly happen when I'm recording 2 shows and watching a 3rd on a different frontend. I too am using a VIA chipset mainboard, (KT400).
I'm running a PVR-500 on ivtv 0.3.5 (k) and kernel 2.6.11.8. messages.3.gz:May 29 14:21:39 mythtv syslogd 1.4.1: restart. messages.3.gz:May 30 14:13:32 mythtv syslogd 1.4.1: restart. messages.3.gz:Jun 3 00:17:52 mythtv syslogd 1.4.1: restart. messages.3.gz:Jun 4 18:13:11 mythtv syslogd 1.4.1: restart. messages.2.gz:Jun 5 05:11:29 mythtv syslogd 1.4.1: restart. messages.2.gz:Jun 5 19:32:15 mythtv syslogd 1.4.1: restart. messages.2.gz:Jun 11 17:22:09 mythtv syslogd 1.4.1: restart. messages.1.gz:Jun 12 05:03:35 mythtv syslogd 1.4.1: restart. messages.1.gz:Jun 15 17:28:08 mythtv syslogd 1.4.1: restart. messages.1.gz:Jun 16 17:24:01 mythtv syslogd 1.4.1: restart. messages.1.gz:Jun 16 17:56:07 mythtv syslogd 1.4.1: restart. messages.1.gz:Jun 16 18:03:05 mythtv syslogd 1.4.1: restart. messages.1.gz:Jun 18 17:12:20 mythtv syslogd 1.4.1: restart. messages:Jun 19 05:03:42 mythtv syslogd 1.4.1: restart.
