In the mentioned kernels, the capturing mode
of the bttv driver stops working when the
load rises (e.g. when moving a window or starting
a program).
My old xawtv program then continuiously reports
EBUSY errors in the ioctl VIDIOCMCAPTURE, even
when I switch back to overlay mode.
When I do nothing, it can work for hours and
after killing the xawtv application and restarting
it, everything is fine again.
Using the pre9-1 bttv.o module with pre9-3 solves the
problem for me.
I have an ancient (1997) Miro PCTV card with bt848.
