I went back to 0.10.3, where I get soft errors for a while as a warning before the killing stroke. They go in this pattern: Nov 13 20:47:33 localhost kernel: ivtv1 warning: ENC DMA ERROR b Nov 13 20:47:33 localhost kernel: ivtv1 warning: encoder VBI: Couldn't find start of buffer within the first 256 bytes Nov 13 20:47:33 localhost kernel: ivtv1 warning: encoder MPEG: offset 0 -> 128 Nov 13 20:47:33 localhost kernel: ivtv1 warning: encoder VBI: offset 0 -> 128 Nov 13 20:47:33 localhost kernel: ivtv1 warning: encoder MPEG: offset 128 -> 0 Nov 13 20:47:33 localhost kernel: ivtv1 warning: encoder VBI: offset 128 -> 0 Nov 13 20:47:48 localhost kernel: ivtv0 warning: ENC DMA ERROR b Nov 13 20:47:48 localhost kernel: ivtv0 warning: encoder VBI: Couldn't find start of buffer within the first 256 bytes Nov 13 20:47:48 localhost kernel: ivtv0 warning: encoder MPEG: offset 0 -> 128 Nov 13 20:47:48 localhost kernel: ivtv0 warning: encoder VBI: offset 0 -> 128 Nov 13 20:47:48 localhost kernel: ivtv0 warning: encoder MPEG: offset 128 -> 64 Nov 13 20:47:48 localhost kernel: ivtv0 warning: encoder VBI: offset 128 -> 64 Nov 13 20:47:48 localhost kernel: ivtv0 warning: encoder MPEG: offset 64 -> 0 Nov 13 20:47:48 localhost kernel: ivtv0 warning: encoder VBI: offset 64 -> 0 If you think there's hope in a later or experimental branch, let me know and I'll try it out. If you think it's a hardware issue, let me know that, too, please, so I can go get something else that will work more reliably. -dsr- -- Every time you give up a right, the terrorists win.
