Hi Antti, I have the feeling, that you spending your time for nothing - and that this is my fault. Have you ever tried to use the Nova-T 500 in Windows with the same intensity as it is done by MythTV and/or VDR (in EPG-scan and channel-scan mode)? I think you will see the problem also - even though not 100% sure due to differences in the USB-transfer-stack. However debugging the usblog to get i2c-messages is not really useful, because the demod-driver for LinuxTV and Windows is coming from the exact same source. On the other hand I can confirm that there are some problem with this device when it is really stressed. Strangly enough it is only the case with exactly this device (in combination with the MT2060-tuner). Newer Dual devices (like from Pinnacle) haven't got the problems. Was the disconnect still related to a "babble" using the bigger buffers? If so, try to increase the buffer again to 64KB. Or try to reduce it to 1KB (or 512Byte) and at the same increase the number of URBs to 50. Patrick.
