I just got the same error, but I wasn't recording anything. I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 with kernel 3.2.0-40.
I am also seeing tvheadend just eat all memory and swap on Ubuntu until the oom killer kicks in and kills it. It happens every time a start tvh, its just the length of time it takes for the oom killer to kick in that varies.

My problem seems to have vannished, i have no ide how :/ i did some changes to the connectors on each end of the cable but i dont think that would've mattered.
Try and update your kernel, ive tried 4-5 different kernels with tvh and each time the problem have disappeared and another one has risen, but now with 3.8.8 iam pretty satisfied

The overflow error just means tvh was a bit slow reading, I used to get it
once on each tune.
The memleak is what worries me. But its setup specific. My server has been
running for ages. But I am aware of a few people having the same problem.

Thanks for the info all.
I have been having this memory issue for some time now, however, I've only tries with v3.4 previously. I'm currently trying master branch and its been up and running for about 2 hours now, and already consuming around 4GB physical memory and 6GB swap (I have 13GB physical mem and 20GB swap configured).
If/when the OoM killer kicks in I will try to paste what it says.

I've attached a snippet from top showing master branch's current memory usage, this does not seem normal to me, can someone confirm that please. The snippet is showing that tvh is using 6.2GB of physical memory and 7.6GB swap. It may take some time for the OoM killer to kick in though, however the screen snip shows what master branch is currently using in my setup.
