Hauppauge PVR-150
I've just installed the latest RC build of Mythbuntu and I'm having problems
with it only changing channels on my PVR-150. It works well after a cold boot
from power off, but after a time of about an hour or so (just a guess, I don't
really know how long, but an hour or two is about right) the card will no
longer change channels. After that, the channel is stuck on the last channel it
went to and all recordings come from that channel.
Am I experiencing some kind of a time-out problem? Some sort of power saving
mode kicking in and "sleeping" my PVR-150? Definitely something throwing my
card into an invalid state. I'm using the latest firmware files so that isn't
the solution.
Here's my dmesg output for ivtv on a cold boot:

One more piece of information: If I do a cold boot and then immediately do a
warm boot, the dmesg output of the warm boot is identical to the dmesg output
of the cold boot. If I do a cold boot, then change channels with LiveTV (which
works, channels change as expected), then do a warm boot, the dmesg output for
that warm boot is identical to the dmesg output of a cold boot.
In another thread on the list I read that someone thought my "rev C599" was a
very new card... My card is almost two years old! Could there be a problem with
the card detection or something? I also read that someone thought there may be
a problem with power supply or the card over-heating. I believe this to be less
likely, since I can get the card back into a valid state simply powering off
and then immediately powering back on. If it were a heating issue you'd think
I'd have to wait some time for the card to cool before I could get it back to a
valid state.
So, there is definitely something happening over time that is putting my
PVR-150 card into an invalid state. I've turned off all possible power-saving
modes just to make sure it isn't my BIOS that is somehow causing these
symptoms. I don't believe it is, though, since I've only had this problem since
I moved to Mythbuntu from Knoppmyth. All of the hardware is identical and
unchanged.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
David.
