current ffdecsawrapper dies on ubuntu with stock kernel (3.16.0-31-generic) #40

I've been having problems with ffdecsawrapper since I upgraded my kernel and recompiled ffdecsawrapper. I'm running a stock ubuntu kernel with no external drivers of any kind and have been installing ffdecsawrapper by cloning the git repository and running the configure script.

Everything compiles ok, the kernel sources are downloaded and the kernel is patched and new modules installed. A new ffdecsawrapper is compiled and installed. After reboot everything (including mythtv) is started ok, but as soon as I activate a recording in mythtv ffdecsawrapper dies instantly! I also end up having two empty recordings in mythtv with no file associated to them.

In ffdecsawrapper.log I have this (in the end): Mar 12 14:09:47.988 CHANNEL: Clearing tuning cache due to switch cmd Mar 12 14:09:48.029 frontend: Didn't read enough data Mar 12 14:09:48.152 THREAD: Netwatcher thread ended (pid=4868, tid=-1239436248)

I've also tried the stable branch with exactly the same result....

As a last resort I tried the oldstable branch and this branch actually works with my kernel! The recording is stable and everything works as expected with the oldstable branch...

What could be wrong?

I will try checking out the master branch at different patch levels and verify at which patch it breaks, but it is a tedious work as I have to compile and then reboot my backend for every patch level...

I rebased, omitting the offending commits. Both master and stable should work now.

I've checked out the master branch and verified that it's working in my setup. It now works as expected with mythtv! Thanks!
