[mythtv-users] Strange shocking screen during recording/watching

[Gareth Glaccum]

Do you have it auto-commflagging whilst recording, or set to commflag after
recording. 
This is a setting that may have changed between the old and new machines,
and would explain why you don't have the issue with liveTV I think.

Subject: [mythtv-users] Strange shocking screen during recording/watching
 
Hi guys,
 
Since a month now i have replaced my old mythtv box with a brand new one..
Because i watch allot of HD content and record allot of shows i decided that
i needed to have a more powerfull and future proof machine so decided to
upgrade not only mem and cpu but also to a GT430 card and SSD drives 2x
Corsair Performance Pro Series 256 GB, S-ATA III.
 
But now the problem with this setup against the old one.. When i record a
program like say House.. and i decided to watch after 20 minutes (so
recording is still going on) to that recording so i can skip commercials
etc.. the screen shocks every xx seconds.. The strange thing is that this is
only happening during the record/watch fase.. if is go to livetv during the
same recording i can watch it without any shocking.. and if the recording is
done and i watch a program no problems either.. So i thought maybe it is an
IO problem somewhere so i tuned my SSD according and looked at iotop/top
etc. etc. but i can't find any bottlenecks anywhere.. It is so verry strange
that everything is working as a charm only if i record something and watch
it at the same time.. The strangest thing i find is that livetv (also a sort
of recording/watching) isn't having any problems.. 
 
It is so strange.. And i hope somebody can help me figure out what is going
on here..;)
 
Regards
Quint
