What version of the driver are you using?
The return value you mention is EOVERFLOW which was already corrected
to the right value EBUFFEROVERFLOW in the driver.

But, in any case, this indicates a buffer overflow.
Try compiling a larger buffer size for the DVR buffer
(DVR_BUFFER_SIZE) into dmxdev.h.
There is no call for changing it. Maybe we need one?
