I decided to upgrade my OS from 2.4 to 2.6 and MythTV from 0.16 to 0.17. I'm 
hoping my system will one day work as well as it did back in the Good Ol Days...

Problem 2: Fast forward, rewind, jumps all produce very blocky transitions 
and/or system lock ups.

I'm on a CVS version from about the end of Feb, using 2 Nova-T digital tuners.

Nothing has physically changed since the previous version. Whatever happened to 
the nice smooth ffwd/rew that was in the release notes? I've seen miscellaneous 
posts about ivtv, shared irqs, broken memory, leaking capacitors (!) that could 
cause this. But why would they be an issue if the previous version worked fine?
