It means the card failed to grab a buffer (and inform the kernel about
it) within a reasonable amount of time. After some time, we give up and
assume the card's stream "died", which results in the above error.

There's a piece in the FAQ about it (included in the driver's tarball).
I'm still not quite sure what would be the best settings possible in the
driver concerning bitrate<->quality and such things. I do notice these
problems (but mostly with the Buz) when recording at full-PAL at high
qualities. Recording at lower resolutions and/or qualities does not seem
to cause problems. I can't tell what causes these problems, other than
bad cooperation between PCI and card.

So: what quality/decimation do you use, and does it improve if you
decrease size/quality?

You need to load the drivers before loading X. Restart X for this to
work after having added 'Load "v4l"' in your XF86Config-4. See LVS' FAQ.
