Hi again,
I still haven't got this fixed yet. I've upgraded to Kernel 2.6.12,
installed the latest stable IVTV (0.2.0-rc3k) and did a make clean, make
distclean, configure, make and make install with Mythtv-0.18.1 (so that
Mythtv would see the new kernel DVB drivers).
Its really weird - the DVB "watch tv" or recording/replaying (both through
the PVR350 output) are really jerky/stuttering. This problem was not here
with 0.16 (actually I think I was lastly running 0.17 but it was fine too).
When this is happening uptime is showing very little usage (its watching on
the Nexus-S dvb card now and recording on the PVR350 and uptime is 1.02) and
no strange output in dmesg or messages log file.
Has anyone else come across this problem? I think I might have to downgrade
back to 0.17.
Thanks,
Derek

Subject: [mythtv-users] 0.18.1 DVB-S Stuttering
Hi,
I've [almost] successfully upgraded from MythTV 0.16 to 0.18.1 but I have a
new DVB-S "stuttering" problem.
I playback DVB-S recording through a PVR350 output. I'm using SuSE Linux
9.1 with a 2.6.8 kernel and the DVB drivers from the kernel source.
With the upgrade to MythTV 0.18.1 DVB-S playback - or Live DVB-S watching -
is like a broken CD - its all stuttering which small samples looping before
jumping on to the next set of looping samples - I'd guess maybe 1/10 of a
second loops about 4 times and then jumps on 400ms to the next looping
samples.
I wonder if my problem is the older kernel DVB drivers - I saw a warning
with the MythTV 0.18.1 compile telling me that its ok not to specify the DVB
driver source directory if I'm using kernel DVB drivers with a kernel
version > 2.6.9 I think. But I choose to ignore this because it compiled
nicely - until it was pointed out to me that it hasn't been recording
CBEEBIES (Children's channels) on satellite correctly this morning!
Thanks for any help,
Derek
