I did a couple things. I pulled the PVR-150 so it is not sharing an
interrupt with the graphics card, that seemed to make it stable for 2
days. The audio card is now sharing the interrupt with the graphics
card.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ cat /proc/interrupts

I then updated the kernel, drivers, and mythtv suite. That was a huge
mistake. I started getting DMA timeout errors with 5 minutes of starting
to record. I have a spare 1Ghz Celeron, so I decide to put 2 pvr-150 in
that system and build a slave backend. To make a long story short I have
a complete frontend/backend system and a slave backend running the
default mythdora 4 distro kernel(2.6.20-1.2944.fc6) with the newest
myth-suite.  The master appears to be pretty stable after reverting to
the older kernel. The slave can access the masters database, but the
slave doesn't record. I haven't been able to find any hint on why this
is. I have the the NFS share setup correctly and can manually create a
file on the mounted share from the slave system. I used the backend only
option in Mythdora setup for the slave. The mythtvsetup/capture card
screen shows only the local system capture cards. However when I exited
mythtvsetup on either system before setting up the Schedule Direct query
I got a warning message saying that all 4 capture didn't have a default
channel set. So myth know of all 4 capture cards. Any Ideas? Or maybe a
link to a slave backend howto? Google didn't pop up much besides the
mysql commands that allowed the slave to see the masters database.

Thanks for the help,
Nate
