At this point, I'm hoping it's hardware. Picking up a new board tomorrow
and trying again.

After bjorking my master be/fe with updates a couple times, I left it
alone. Long as I did, it was trouble free for over 4 years.
Only reason I did all this was to get all my tuner cards in one box and

Well, I'm saving electricity now!
None of my mythboxes have worked for almost two weeks.
...Best laid plans.
