I've been busy testing and I have an apology to make. It looks like the problem is with a riser card. When I moved the Nova-T 500 to an identical VIA SP8000 in a case that allowed a direct fitting PCI card, the problems stabilized. This does explain why I was the only one seeing these problems. Curious that the card was stable for DVB functions if the RC polling was disabled. I will amend the wiki to make sure it reflects the current status of the driver. _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
