At first, I thought my cards (a PVR-350 and PVR-250MCE) were overheating; my MythTV box is in an Antec Overture case. I replaced the stock heatsinks with chipset fans. The recordings were still corrupted. What finally fixed the problem for me was reverting to an older version of ivtv. I had been running 0.3.3k, but am now running 0.2.0_rc3, which is the newest version Gentoo considers stable (more specifically, I'm using the 0.2.0_rc3-r4 ebuild). The MPEG corruption is now gone. Life is good. This fix might not work if you're running a PVR-150, but I wasn't able to get one of those working at all when I tried one this past weekend. _/_ / v \ Scott Alfter (remove the obvious to send mail) (IIGS( http://alfter.us/ Top-posting! \_^_/ rm -rf /bin/laden >What's the most annoying thing on Usenet? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFCnQhQVgTKos01OwkRAkDwAKDgtRhgyYUT/Vz4b2kqFsHeYcOWAgCdECwl 4cMrRpFDWO8FWzPMI7Ciido= =7U34 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
