There is a pending patch, by Jelle Foks, that fixes some problems in
cx88-mpeg, and it affects both cx88-blackbird and cx88-dvb. Seems to
work for me, but we're waiting for some testing on a blackbird device,
which I dont have....
Anyhow, I'm curious if this patch helps your situation.
Patch is located at:
http://linuxtv.org/~mkrufky/pending/jelle-cx88-mpeg-restart-queue-fix.patch
Let me know how things go...
Hope this helps,
Michael
