Hi Levent,
First off, thanks for putting in the time to write this patch. This is a
*very* cool feature.

The next part is more interesting: "Couldn't read data from the
capture card in 15

It seems your dbox does not return any data. Please make sure it runs
in SPTS mode and has a recent image. (I recommend yadi-2.x). Also make
sure your ucodes are up to date.
I'm using the latest Sportster, and would like to stick with that. I
haven't got on too well with Yadi. SPTS is enabled, and when I run
tcpdump or iptraf I can see a steady stream of traffic coming in to the
Myth box. I do see occasional isolated frames and hear short bursts of
audio.
Incidentally, I've been able to stream to my Xbox (XBMC) from the dbox
without any trouble at all. This also requires SPTS mode, so I now doubt
that there is anything wrong with the dbox. Could a ucode problem
manifest itself as a streaming failure to Myth, but not to XBMC? Does
Myth need and special decoders to cope with the stream from the dbox? My
Myth box works very well with my Nova-T freeview card.
I'm probably going to install Gentoo on a spare box I've got lying
around, just to see if it's a problem with my FC3 box.
Cheers,
John
