Total and utter disaster.
In an attempt to fix my sound issues I accidentally ran apt-get upgrade
ice1724 instead of apt-get install ice1724. I didn't think to check
what was installing. Apparently apt-get upgrade upgrades all installed
packages. I was afraid to ctrl-C so I just let it go. Afterwards my
system was swiss cheese. SSH, and MythWeb were incommunicado.
Mythfrontend started up fine, but when I tried to play a recording or
live-tv I got no sound and video for 2 seconds and it would either kick
me back to the menu or crash. I was getting the "prebuffering pause"
errors followed by an endless stream of "audio buffer overflow, audio
data lost" errors. I tried installing knoppmyth r5a16 on my other HD
and got to the point where I could get audio and video through the
tv-out with "dd if=/dev/video0 of=/dev/video16" but in mythfrontend I
was still getting the same errors from my old install that I broke, the
only difference being that it would continue to play video. My original
install was r5a10 and it's still where it was after I broke it. I'd try
to do a fresh install of r5a10 since I know it works (or at least worked
when I installed it) but I can't find the cd and the iso isn't available
anymore. Anyone have any experience with these errors? I've tried
several different version of ivtv, all with the same results.
