<div lang="EN-US" vlink="purple" link="blue"><div><p class="MsoNormal">Hi guys,<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">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.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">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.. <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">It is so strange.. And i hope somebody can help me figure out what is going on here..;)<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">

</div><div>Quint, I have the same graphics card as you and if I understand you correctly then I have the same problem. The "shocking" that you experience, is it video and audio seizing up sometimes for seconds and then video and audio resuming? That is what I experience, and after a few of these incidents in quick succession (like within ~2 minutes) myth will boot me back to the recordings menu with a "Irrecoverable Recorder Error". I actually sent an email to the users list about it last night titled "Irrecoverable Recorder Error while watching recordings that are currently being recorded." Like you, when the recording is done, no playback problems whatsoever.</div>
