Comment:
This is an old ticket, but I'm running into the same problem a year later.
Running mythfilldatabase when an encoder is active invariably causes
'IOBOUND' errors and results in less than stellar recordings. This is
with MythTV 0.19 running on a 2.66Ghz system with a single 7200RPM
ST3160021A drive.
I agree with the original poster -- it's odd that populating the program
database should swamp the system. It's possible that something as simple
as sleeping a few milliseconds between SQL statements could reduce the
impact of this on the system (I haven't looked at the code -- perhaps the
SQL needs optimizing?).
Another solution would be adding a 'run mythfilldatabase only when
encoders are idle' feature to the scheduler.
