[linux-dvb] Unknown Picture Type and Video Data Stream broken Bug in Driver

["Stefan Hagendorn" <stefan.hagendorn@lindy.cc>]

Hi all,

since updating to 2.6.x Kernels and adding 2 Nova type cards I have those 
Video Data Stream broken errors (the nova suddenly does not deliver data 
anymore). Up to today I had never any Unknown Picture Type Errors.

Today I updated the Kernel to 2.6.10-rc1-bk15 and vdr to the latest 
Version (1.3.15).

with this new constellation I reloaded the box and started vdr. At the 
first recording goes straight to the bin - I got the well known and only 
by reboot fixable "Video Data Stream broken Error" this was not really a 
surprise BUT

this evening a recording is running and I discovered an
 "Nov  5 21:10:01 voyager vdr[3373]: ERROR: unknown picture type '7'"
Error .. This is really a very bad surprise.

Afaik there is still now solution out there - but does really no-one have 
a clue where the error comes from (afaik it never happens under 2.4.x 
kernels with the old drivers)

Sorry but this really suxx

Stefan
