I got the PVR-500 to work in MythTV, but it's having some troubles and locking up mythbackend. So bad, in fact, that I have to reboot the machine. Things work ok at first, then as soon as I exit "Live TV" and go back in, I just get a blank screen. I can't switch inputs or anything. Closing out mythfrontend, I can see that the mythbackend terminal window is frozen. A reboot is the only thing I can do to get it working again.
Anyone experienced(ing) this behavior with the PVR-500 and mythtv?
