[Bug 503643] Re: IVTV Cards (PVR 500) corrupt video

 

Hi tduffy83:

It's great to hear that you've solved this problem for yourself.  From
what I understand, it's more preferable to use data provided by
schedules direct over a channel scan anyway (although as you pointed
out, analog channel scanning is broken in 0.22).

However, hopefully the analog channel scanner will be sorted out for
0.23.

Bug description:
Fresh install of Mythbuntu 9.10 32 bit.

This bug was introduced in 9.04, 8.10 worked flawlessly.  

I have 3 PVR 500 cards, and all 6 tuners do this under 9.04 and 9.10 across multiple machines.

The specific problem is that the video severely corrupts at the tuner/encoder level.  I have played back the resultant recordings on other frontends and even windows machines and the video is corrupted.  Parts of the show will jump all over the place and the show is just completely unwatchable.

I would really like this bug to be fixed because I want to use the great new features in 0.22, but I'm stuck using 8.10 until it gets fixed.  These encoders/tuners are still extremely popular for those of us who still want to pull down analog cable.

Please let me know if there is anything specific I can do to help.  If need be I'll even mail you one of my PVR 500 boards, I am that desperate!
