I looked over this list and haven't really found an exact match to the problem I'm having. Video was working fine for recordings/live tv until a few days ago when I upgraded to the CVS HEAD version of mythtv. I would go back to the older version but transcoding wasn't working with 0.16.

My problem is that recordings and live-tv have noticeable mpeg artifacts when they are played/watched. I've gone through logs and I don't see any comments about DMA errors (it's on for both hard drives I have in my LVM volume), but there are lines like:

[mpeg2video @ 0x4089d010]slice mismatch
[mpeg2video @ 0x4089d010]00 motion_type at 24 14
[mpeg2video @ 0x4089d010]invalid mb type in B Frame at 28 29
[mpeg2video @ 0x4089d010]ac-tex damaged at 7 2


in mythfrontend's log. Thinking that my ivtv drivers were no longer compatible with this version of myth, I upgraded to the most current rc3* version (0.2.0-rc3f) but that hasn't helped. I've also checked recordings on my computer and the artifacts are being recorded in the mpeg not displayed on playback. Recordings before my upgrade play fine.


Any thoughts?

My system info is as follows:

MythTV - CVS HEAD
IvTv   - 0.2.0-rc3f
Kernel - 2.4.26 compiled with Slackware 10 default config options
Hauppauge PVR-250
CPU    - AMD Athlon XP 2600
RAM    - 512MB
HD     - LVM Volume with 2 drives (160GB & 200GB)
