My MPX board only has a 10/100 3Com 905C Ethernet Adapter. And I use the
64Bit version of the Adaptec SCIS Controller. I have not noticed any
problems because of that (or at least I think so)

OK

That's "normal", or at least the way the zoran work. The chipset first
tries to get the video saved, and than to tries to show it.

It also works without problems when I use a other card like the ess1371
(SB-128). It seems that the whole mmap part does not work with that
chipset.

There is something very wrong. But that ist when you record from the BUZ
?
Has the Buz it's own interrupt ? That might als help a little. But I
guess that you have a different problem.

I use a Suse and also a 2.4.21 Kernel. Do you have enables the zoran
support as module when you have compiled the kernel ?

Thats weird. 

I'll try to plug in my old bttv card and see what happens. 

auf hoffentlich bald,
