[ivtv-users] cat /dev/video0 suddently stops after capturing a looong time

[Mike]

Quick update, it finally stopped after around 3 hours. cat did stay 
running but not reading anything. I did manage to unload the module 
(rmmod cx2341x ivtv -f) then reload it and then cat would start reading 
again. As for the logs, only thing in /var/log/messages was:

Aug  8 16:26:07 pvr kernel: ivtv0 info: User stopped encoder MPEG
Aug  8 16:26:07 pvr kernel: ivtv0 ioctl: close() of encoder MPEG
Aug  8 16:26:07 pvr kernel: ivtv0 ioctl: close() of encoder MPEG
Aug  8 16:26:07 pvr kernel: ivtv0 info: close stopping capture
Aug  8 16:26:07 pvr kernel: ivtv0 info: Stop Capture

which was shown any time i stopped it manually anyway so i guess is 
pretty useless. No other logs had anything relating to ivtv in them. I 
will now update the kernel + ivtv and see what happens.

cheers,
Mike
