Hi! I am banging my head against a wall on this one. I just hooked my mythtv front/backend onto my new HDTV. Everything went smoothly until I tried to play video. It plays (nicely) for 5-15 mins, the crashes mythfrontend (mythbackend is fine). It does this for live tv, playback of recorded tv, and, strangly, xine did the same thing when playing a dvd (via Myth).
I'm running at 720p (1280x720). I've tried to connect via DVI-HDMI and via a direct VGA connection (the TV has both). The frontend log just stops (here is the last few lines of the log with verbose reporting on): 'video_output' mean = '34955.90', std. dev. = '7624.43', fps = '28.61' 2005-08-31 08:16:26.941 positionMap[ 1642 ] == 533501990. 2005-08-31 08:16:27.441 positionMap[ 1643 ] == 533819430. 2005-08-31 08:16:27.941 positionMap[ 1644 ] == 534138918. 2005-08-31 08:16:28.441 positionMap[ 1645 ] == 534478886. 2005-08-31 08:16:28.940 positionMap[ 1646 ] == 534798374. 2005-08-31 08:16:29.440 positionMap[ 1647 ] == 535126054. 2005-08-31 08:16:29.940 positionMap[ 1648 ] == 535445542.

Ideas? I'm kind of a linux noob, so if you would like to see other output, please let me know. This was supposed to be my big unveiling to my wife and kids, so please help!!!
