Depending on how fast this happens, it could be triggering some Kernel bug. That affects most V4L and DVB devices. You should either use a powered USB 2.0 hub (with may be problematic, as the USB host driver on RPi has issues - and may cause data loss on high sustained ISOC traffic, specially when used with hubs) or a device that has its own power supply, like DVBSky T680C or S960. > > Since this issue is "back", > > I wouldn't be surprised this is unrelated to the fixes in 1.12.7 and 1.16.4. > The issue doesn't appear anymore on raspberry zero W since Mauro's commit. > So it did improve on that platform. > > > It would be useful to see the output from dmesg (best thing would be after > > the issue occurs). > You can't, device is frozen. > Logs are not flushed to disk, and journalctl -f freeze before showing anything You can use a serial port in order to get the logs.
