I'm also using the latest SIS driver from winischhofer.net. Hmm, when I play the pchdtv.com sample in mplayer, I get video of some people on a train (and it's doubled horizontally so there are two images of the same thing). When I play the same one within Myth, I get video of a man and a woman singing, and it plays completely properly. I guess there are two channels in that stream, but I don't know why mplayer chooses one and Myth the other. You say you had to abandon onboard SIS. What did you use instead? My Pundit has no AGP slot. -Jerry _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
