I found the problem. I was specifying 5/6 in the channel parameters (can´t remember how it is called) instead of auto but the truth is that it is 5/6 as per http://en.kingofsat.net/tv-19.2E.php Now I have a different problem, HD channels consume between 81% and 93% of CPU so pixelation occurs and audio drops at intervals as the system is basicall y choking at 1080p with encrypted HD channels. I am uxing: ABIT A78-HD motherboard (with HDMI output for audio and video) latest OSS driver as Alsa never did output audio over HDMI with my motherboard. And this motherboard has a built-in NVIDIA 8200 which I am assigning 256MBs of RAM to (have a total of 2 Gigs of RAM and 2 gigs of Swap space) In Xine using vidix for video driver and getodelay for audio.oss_sync metho d. Is there something I can change to try to help with the HD channels? _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
