Sorry about the below html.  Hotmail sucks.  Anyway,  I stopped using samba, 
but the same thing is still happening.  They are from a pvr-350 using the 
ivtv driver.  How do I make sure my tables are ok?

I'm using a remote frontend, and samba to watch the recordings from 
the<br>&gt; &gt; backend.  I'm doing this because its the only way I know to 
share files over<br>&gt; &gt; a network, although I know it can be done with 
NFS.  When I skip forward in<br>&gt; &gt; a recording, the length of the 
recording fluctuates.  So if a recording is<br>&gt; &gt; say, 30 minutes, 
when I hit the skip button it will fluctuate wildly between<br>&gt; &gt; 
about 29:30 and 30:30.  Would this happen if I used NFS?<br>&gt;<br>&gt;I 
doubt it would, they're the same files in the end. I'd make sure<br>&gt;your 
database tables are all OK firstly, as this is known to 
cause<br>&gt;oddities in reported recording length and issues when 
navigating<br>&gt;through a file. Also, what type of recordings are these? 
DVB, HDTV or<br>&gt;capture card source? I normally have no problems with 
DVB files, but<br>&gt;ivtv files sometime have really erratic recording 
lengths
