I'm running centos 5.2  2.6.18-128.1.1.el5, mythtv mythtv-0.21-203.el5

I'm getting system lockups that appear to be the interaction of my 
two video capture cards.  I'm running a PVR-350 and a LMLBT44. when 
I'm running mythtv AND zoneminder, I get errors along the lines of:

Apr 23 21:44:59 glutton kernel: bttv0: OCERR @ 7a807014,bits: HSYNC 
OFLOW FBUS FDSR OCERR*  (which seem to be tied to video capture from 
the PVR-350.


In /proc/interrupts I see:

   0:     306846          0    IO-APIC-edge  timer

Is it possibly bad that one of the channels of the lmlbt44 and the 
ivtv0 (pvr-350) are on the same interrupt (and thus acusing lockups)? 
I've dabbled to try to make them not use the same IRQ or change how 
they load, but it doesn't seem to change anything or fix it.

current modprobe.conf:
alias eth0 forcedeth
alias scsi_hostadapter sata_nv
alias scsi_hostadapter1 usb-storage
remove snd-hda-intel { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 0 >/dev/null 2>&1 || : 
; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-hda-intel

alias char-major-81     videodev
alias char-major-81-0   ivtv
alias char-major-81-1   bttv
alias char-major-81-2   bttv
alias char-major-81-3   bttv
alias char-major-81-4   bttv

options ivtv enc_mpg_buffers=16 dec_mpg_buffers=4

options bttv card=118,118,118,118

install bttv /sbin/modprobe ivtv; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install bttv

options ivtv-fb osd_compat=1

install ivtv /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install ivtv; /sbin/modprobe ivtv-fb

# for lircd
alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c
install lirc_i2c /sbin/modprobe ivtv; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install lirc_i2c

alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-card-0 index=0



Any ideas what could be making the system lock?  Things seem 
completely stable when zonemidner isn't running, and seem to be 
(still not 100% confident) as stable with ZM but not myth.  It's the 
two together that look to be killing me.
