Well, that's good... But... It seems to happen more frequently *and* I end up with zero-length files sometimes too. HV> Can you give a few sample lines from the log with the DMA errors? Sure, but they're not exciting: Dec 3 20:20:26 machine kernel: ivtv0: DMA TIMEOUT 00000001 0 Dec 3 20:21:56 machine kernel: ivtv0: DMA TIMEOUT 00000001 0 Dec 3 20:22:50 machine kernel: ivtv0: DMA TIMEOUT 00000001 0 Dec 3 20:24:04 machine kernel: ivtv0: DMA TIMEOUT 00000001 0 Dec 3 20:24:10 machine kernel: ivtv0: DMA TIMEOUT 00000001 0 Is there anything that can be done when the errors start happening? Maybe quickly (automatically) stopping the app (myth), removing the module and reinserting and restarting the app? Or would it likely take a complete reset before the issues get dealt with. They seem to happen repeatedly once they start... -- "In the bathtub of history the truth is harder to hold than the soap, and much more difficult to find." -- Terry Pratchett _______________________________________________ ivtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://ivtvdriver.org/mailman/listinfo/ivtv-users
