The dwarf nova VSX J0747+0650 has pulsations at 238.2 s and 684.2 s (found only two years after its superoutburst), and is therefore a CV/ZZ star. Our observations of the accreting white dwarf SDSS0919+08 show that it occasionally has a brightness modulation at 214 s in addition to the known one near 260 s, establishing its credentials as a CV/ZZ pulsator rather than a rotator. The pulsations can grow in amplitude from undetectability to prominent on a time scale ~months.
