Just to play devil's advocate, it may be possible for Myth to work around this
hardware/driver problem.  I think it's up to IJR to decide whether to accept a
bug report.  If it included a patch that worked around the problem (perhaps
restarting the stream if it fails, assuming you can detect this particular
failure mode) it's possible it may be accepted into Myth.
