Just for your information. I have (nearly) the same
system running and have the same problems. But I think
the CI is hanging especially after video playback
(with heavy rewinding ..) too. But the epg scanning
will kill the CAM also. After rmmod and insmod of the
drivers all is ok again.
I am using the 2.4.0 kernel of the suse 7.1 distri.

The color of the OSD is changing during/after video
playing and you was on an encrypted channel. Is the
recorded data stream moved through the CI module too?
Sometimes there are video or audio distortions if the
play bar is displayed. It seems that concurrent
writing to the card of the video and the data to the
OSD at the same time will produce the errors. If this
occurs the color of the OSD is changing too. Is the
PCI-interface so weak that it have problems with that?
