I am wondering if anyone is seeing this...and if they know how to fix it. Summary: Using MythTV the Audio/video is choppy during playback (I can't tell if it is recorded this way or not)...in my errors I get a stream of prebuffering audio errors. I think there might be something wrong with the capture/recording (and not playback) because: 1. Both my myth frontends do this while maintaining <10% CPU/RAM/Disk IO. 2. The Windows DSMyth drivers crash trying to play the recording. 3. Recording keeps CPU load <.2...Disk/RAM/etc always < 10% 4. Other capture cards work great in the same machine. 5. Signal is strong and does not drop. Other clues: Channels with no audio (yes I have one; KiroDT2) have no pause...smooth video. azap output: tv:~# azap KIRO-DT using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' tuning to 623028615 Hz video pid 0x0031, audio pid 0x0034 status 00 | signal 3cdc | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 | status 1f | signal 952e | snr ff98 | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 | FE_HAS_LOCK status 1f | signal 94e2 | snr ffc8 | ber 00000000 | unc 0000003c | FE_HAS_LOCK status 1f | signal 9508 | snr ffbe | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 | FE_HAS_LOCK status 1f | signal 94e2 | snr ffc0 | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 | FE_HAS_LOCK status 1f | signal 9496 | snr ffc3 | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 | FE_HAS_LOCK ...And it stays that high. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
