Every so often, my PVR-250 (using the most recent cxm driver) will generate a corrupt capture. From that point on, every successive capture will also be corrupt. Sometimes, the system log will show a message cxm0: encoder dma status 0xb (although this seems to appear during the second corrupt capture, not the first). The correlation between this message and the corrupt captures is not perfect -- sometimes, there is no message at all. Interestingly, it takes a full reboot of the box to restore the card to proper operation. A simple 'kldunload cxm' followed by 'kldload cxm' doesn't work. After a reboot, it seems to go a couple of days before the problem crops up again. Any ideas on this? I'm running 5.3; kernel built about a week ago. I'm trying to capture from over-the-air broadcasts. -David.
