That's bad news. Could you please add this info on the Wikipage? http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Technisat_SkyStar_USB_HD > How many days without interruption did you use the device? Well, this was about 2 days and 1.5 ;) recordings It's now another 3 days. and there were only a few i2c errors, but nothing serious. I did only two SD recordings in the meantime. No problems yet. I changed the watchdog from 60 secs to 10 mins. I added a delay of 10 secs between unload and reload of the modules in the runvdr script. I hope the machine will be able to recover automatically next time. > I was following quietly you're discussion with Antti. Has someone taken > care of the your changes regarding the transfer-size? No. Since I don't understand anything about what I did ;) And I don't know the process of officially working on the kernel...

Then someone with more insight should change the buffers and create a patch. o.O Jan -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
