I am using a two card system (Siemens DVB-S 1.3 and Terratec Cinergy 
1200 DVB-T) with SuSE9.2 and SuSE Kernel.
I do not have any problems when viewing live tv with my FF card. If I 
watch live tv using transfer mode in vdr I also get those continuity errors.
I did not try recordings on my new system so far.
