Mark,

I've been having the same problem. and also having a problem where the
TV show loops with bad reception (ie runs for 10 or so minutes and
hits some poor signal and then loops back to the start of the
recording..)

I've deceided to look at fixing my reception 1st. I've been looking at
replacing all of the RG6 cable and if that doesn't work I'll look at
repacing my antenna.

funny thing is I have 2 different capture cards a cheapo Leadtek
DTV1000s and a DVICO FusionHDTV dvb-t lite.

The 1000s is passed through the Dvico card and has better reception
than the Dvico card.. but frustratingly myth always selects the Dvico
card 1st. so when I'm having the same problem as you I have been
selecting the different input from the menu.

my system is AthlonXp 2600+ (OC'd to equiv of a 3000ish+) 1.5 gig
Nvidia 7600GS(xvmc)
