[mythtv-users] question regarding composite vs. television inputs

I'm just throwing this out here to see if anyone else has this issue. I
have my video input *only* on the composite input on my TV tuner card;
The coax input is unused (AT TV Wonder VE). I setup myth correctly, and
most of the time it works properly. However, I've noticed that about
1/10th of the recordings for some reason try to use the coax input, so
all I get is the green screen with some static for the duration of the
recording. It really does seem to be random, and I'm guessing about a 1
in 10 chance of this happening to my recordings. It's a shame 'cause
it's like I'm playing Russian Roulette and I never know if the one show
I *really* need to be recorded will just be blank when I get home.
Watching live TV always works fine. Oh, and this has been happening for
months, and I upgrade to the current CVS about once a week and this
issue still happens. Just happened yesterday with a new CVS, too.
Does this happen to anyonen else using only composite input?
Thanks in advance,
Mike
