Nick, upstream is slowly dropping the contrib directory and is moving such items to their wiki, and they have done that with your script, which now resides here:
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Ivtv_Channel_changer Channel changing is a weak area in the Mythbuntu's "ease of usability" - perhaps this and other channel change options could be put together to replace the IR-blaster option in MCC. ** Changed in: mythtv (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix -- Sound goes bad when changing channels https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/210852 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mythbuntu Bug Team, which is subscribed to Mythbuntu. Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV: In Progress Status in MythTV: Won't Fix Status in “mythtv” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Currently have Beta 8.04 installed and all updates as of 4/2/08. Whenever I change a channel in LiveTV, the sound gets full of static and gets a loud, high-pitched whine to it. If I exit out of LiveTV and go back it, everything is fine again. If I'm watching LiveTV then a scheduled recording wants to start, that recording will have the same sound issue throughout unless I exit out of LiveTV first. I'm currently just using onboard audio. From lspci: 00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 60) I've only had this problem since upgrading from 7.10 to the 8.04 beta. Audio worked fine when changing channels before then. I spoke to someone in IRC about it and they pointed me to this article: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_PVR-500#Audio_Instability I guess exiting LiveTV and restarting it does what that suggested command would do. And having to do that at every channel change isn't really a solution. I'm not sure where I would insert that script that is suggested either. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~mythbuntu-bugs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~mythbuntu-bugs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
