I've got another oops here with a different value. This time a bttv message
preceded it. Note that the oops happened shortly *after* I stopped capturing
(watching the tv through mplayer).

Output of dmesg:

bttv0: OCERR @ 375e2014,bits: HSYNC OFLOW FDSR OCERR*
(two pages of the same message here)

bttv0: OCERR @ 375e2014,bits: HSYNC OFLOW FDSR OCERR*
bttv0: OCERR @ 375e2014,bits: HSYNC OFLOW FBUS FDSR OCERR*
