I checked the uptime, and it dates back to (4 days 7 hours) Saturday
mid morning when I finished the reinstall.

I'm digging into the backend log and i'll post some things i've found
in a few minutes...



> Try setting the best tuners to be preferred (whichever one taxes your machine the least - SiliconHD?)  Also make sure your hard drives are tuned to best i/o performance (hint: hdparm)

I have the SiliconHD set as the first and second tuner and the pchdtv
is set as the third tuner.  That was just because the SiliconHD could
record on ABC5 and the pchdtv can't seem to record it (weak signal out
in the country).


It seems like there might also be some options to run commercial
flagging processes when the machine is less busy.  You might want to
investigate those.
