A wild stab in the dark, but could it be anything to do with TS and/or
PS? You haven't changed your recording card to use on or the other
have you? I am not sure how that could affect it though, but it was
the first thing to come to my head :|
this is definitely a strong candidate, PS recording is deprecated, because
it's flakey. You should change all your capturecards to use TS regardless.
You can do this quickly int the DB with
update capturecard set dvb_recordts=1
I've no idea what it does - but am pretty sure that I haven't changed
the setting. If it was something like that then I could expect all new
recordings to have the same problem, couldn't I. whereas it is just the
occasional recording that i have trouble with. I had one recording where
Not necessarily, there are lots of variations in each stream dependent on
content. Is it always the same program that causes trouble? e.g. I had a
lot of trouble recording Law & Order: Criminal Intent on five in the UK
until I changed this setting.
Aha ! This sounds interesting, because I had a case where the trouble
only started when the adverts finished and the programmes began. Plus,
it always seems to be programmes that my wife wants to watch which get
screwed up :-)
One last thing, have you checked your aerial is still pointing where you
expect? :-)
I have been playing with the aerial, but, as I pointed out earlier in
the thread, since the problems only appear when played with particular
pieces of s/w or h/w and the same file will play faultlessly elsewhere,
I am assuming that the problems are happening after the signal has arrived.
So, I just pulled up mythtvsetup and, sure enough, it was set to record
'PS' :-( I've changed it to 'TS'. Time will tell whether this works or not.
Apologies to "Whytey" for giving him the brush-off when he suggested
this as the root of the problem, and thanks to both of you for pointing
it out to me.
Lets hope it does the trick,
cheers,
