Recording seems fine as far as I can tell, I do not visibly see any bad or
mangled frames.. I am guessing the code is just trying to free() something
that has already been free()d.

Interesting, I will have to poke at my code a bit, as well as track down
bktrjpeg.c and simple_grab.c.
Also, John Wehle recently posted code for the WinTV-PVR, how much work
