Reproducible NULL pointer BUG at
crystalhd-0.0~git20110715.fdd2f19/driver/linux/crystalhd_misc.c:515,
triggered by adobe flash plugin from dmo repo, ffmpeg, mplayer, bino or other,
mostly on heavy ioq usage
or after FETCH_TIMEOUT and/or unclosed driver HANDLEs.
Does the maintainer or somebody on pkg-multimedia plan on fixing this RC
bug? If not I'll consider a NMU removing the dkms package from
crystalhd source.

seem to have left the Broadcom's legacy driver code, focusing on the new
linux-media staging driver, but limited time,
one stated lately on the linux-media/LKML, nothing read from the others.
I could adapt it to new kernel releases the next 2-3 years, but nothing more,
not a experienced kernel driver coder,
no debian package/policy maintaining motivation because I do not use dkms or
debian kernels packages.
If my last patch applies to Your codebase in the debian git repository (mine is
from git.linuxtv.org, according to the
git changelog more advanced in the gstreamer plugin, merge?) You may consider it
"hotfixed"
and release with known multithreading (gstreamer based transcoders/matroska
demuxers) and PM ACPI S3 issues?
Has not crashed here any more, nor notable side effects with usual playback use
cases, including Totem (gstreamer).
