I had a failing HVR2200 a few months back - mine would crash out with i2c
errors (some sort of internal comms) and would require a complete
powerdown/up cycle to get it back for a few more days.

Since I had other concerns with my 6 year old server box, I moved on to a
TBS6281 for DVB-T and a TBS6982 for DVB-S (replacing a couple of SkyStar
cards) with the HVR2200 doing analog capture as a temporary measure until
I could get the STB output sorted.

The HVR2200 has not failed in over 3 months - dodgy PSU?, motherboard on
the way out? who knows. Just know it hadn't failed after all!!
