Following Jarod's guide, I got a box with firewire capture working. (SDTV output through an nvidia geforce 4 card).
ALSA appeared to be working though I wanted to get SP/DIF working so my reciever could get the 5.1 output from HBO, or whatever. Folllowed the guide a little closer, and using the .asoundrc and a little plugNplay I was able to get digital audio for a moment (reciever is plugged into optical output on the Live! Drive IR), but on some channels the playback appears too fast (chipmunk syndrome) and it stutters each second). Frontend output while this is happening: 2005-05-07 17:43:36.876 Changing from None to WatchingLiveTV 2005-05-07 17:43:36.886 The realtime priority setting is not enabled. 2005-05-07 17:43:36.988 Video timing method: USleep with busy wait 2005-05-07 17:43:37.288 prebuffering pause 2005-05-07 17:43:37.724 prebuffering pause 2005-05-07 17:43:38.174 prebuffering pause 2005-05-07 17:43:38.391 prebuffering pause 2005-05-07 17:43:38.606 prebuffering pause 2005-05-07 17:43:38.975 prebuffering pause 2005-05-07 17:43:39.448 WriteAudio: buffer underrun 2005-05-07 17:43:39.466 prebuffering pause 2005-05-07 17:43:39.926 prebuffering pause 2005-05-07 17:43:40.275 prebuffering pause 2005-05-07 17:43:40.608 prebuffering pause 2005-05-07 17:43:40.894 prebuffering pause 2005-05-07 17:43:43.065 prebuffering pause 2005-05-07 17:43:43.070 WriteAudio: buffer underrun I tried logging in as root and running with the realtime option turned on, no change. Now this is on a channel like cartoon network, and if I switch to a program on HBO, 5.1 audio kicks in on my reciever and it play normally. (haven't tried seeking too much yet)) So any suggestions? system is an AMD XP 2400/1gig ram a 40gig main drive and a old 6gig LVMed for future expansion. Could having the slower drive in there be a problem? I don't think so because I can get an HBO program to play back with no apparent playback problems. I had an issue where If I switch channels from HBO to something like Cartoon Network, Myth crashes, but I think it was because I had XvMC enabled or something, seems to be better now, here's the output anyway, maybe someone can confirm? closing filter for pid 0x10 av_remove_stream 0x10 closing filter for pid 0x11 streams_changed() 2005-05-07 18:01:43.938 streams_changed() -- stream count 2 2005-05-07 18:01:43.952 AvFormatDecoder: Video has changed from 0x0 to720x480.
