 Using svn 11015. Tried starting two recordings at the same time. It seemed
 to casuse lots of failures. From the system /var/log/messages file:
     ivtv0 warning: Error starting capture ...:  1 Time(s)
     ivtv0 warning: init error 21. Code -16 ...:  1 Time(s)

 Plus a bunch more repeating errors:
 Sep  1 00:00:17 douglas kernel: ivtv0 warning: 1000 ms time out waiting
 for firmware
 Sep  1 00:00:17 douglas kernel: ivtv0 warning: Failed api call 0x00000082
 with result 0xfffffff0
 Sep  1 00:00:17 douglas kernel: ivtv0 warning: ENC: Failed stopping

 Sep  1 00:00:31 douglas kernel: ivtv0 warning: No Free Mailbox for cmd
 0x000000dc after 100 tries!
 Sep  1 00:00:31 douglas kernel: ivtv0 warning: Mailbox[0] 0x000000dc flags
 0x00000003

 Then from the mythbackend log:
     Failed to bind port 6543. Exiting.

 I ended up needing to reboot the system. Some other bit of confusion with
 the change to treat the card as one card and two tuners is that the
 backend status page only refers to tuner 2.
