If you can give me a few hours then I can try this patch out. I wouldn'tI'm very sad to report that this patch appears to have made no difference on *my* card. However, I think my card may well be dying and so not representative of other peoples problems... It currently seems to last about 6 channel changes which is better than yesterday...
rely on my card being representative though - I really suspect that it dying
slowly. However, if this patch breathes life into it, then I would strongly
suggest that it is an incredibly powerful patch (it will work better than
the windows drivers for example!!)
I will do some more debugging later and see if I can see that the patch is actually firing, ie whether I get debugging messages in the log. A cursory glance though I saw a few "locked up" warning messages, but when I retested after manually killing dvb-ttpci, I then locked it up again and saw no warning messages...
Just to be clear I am applying this patch to the DVB cvs branch? Applied against CVS 30 mins ago I had hunk 3 of your patch not apply cleanly (wierd though, it looked fine) and so I manually applied.
I have just about given up on this card now. I will give hauppauge a ring tomorrow and see if they will help out, but assuming in the likely event that they don't does anyone want a long term loan of this card (Juergen?) for investigation (I'm assuming that I might want it back at some point though). Failing that, anyone want to buy it to use with VDR in conjunction with a budget card for signal?
Thanks for your interest everyone
