[pvrusb2] Mythtv hangs on livetv

 From a couple of tests I did few weeks ago, is not exactly MythTV hanging..
It seems when you start to 'read' from the livetv buffer (or from the 
blablabal .nuv 'non-live' recordings in my case also, while they are 
being recorded),the pvrusb2 driver can't read from the PVRUS2 box anymore.
