Hi Konrad,
Thx for your reply, I have been hiking in the Swiss mountains for about 2
weeks, so i had more Zen than Xen, which is nice from time to time, but delayed
my reply :-)
I will try everything again in the next week some time, i also saw from the
corner of my eye someone else on the usb-devel mailing list with some problems
with XHCI-ISOC which could be related so i will also search for patches there.
I will keep you posted with my new experiences.

I will give this a try !

Yes that's some concern, and it does with USB 2, just before my holiday I
switched back to USB 2 with the same grabber, and it has run for 20 days now
with continuous grabbing and a lot of disk and network activity.
So it definitely is about XHCI.
And freezing the hypervisor without a trace is definitely the last and worst
option on my list :-)
