I would have thought 512M would be enough for mythfrontend/backend machine. I have fluxbox as the window manager. Although I do have it set so mythcomflag runs when the recording starts.


Could loading the bttv module impact recording quality? I am begining to wonder if the recording quality issues began when I set up lirc. Right around the same time the ms said, "I don't like how much space the keyboard takes up on the coffee table."

As for the jumps, they're more of a flash, a flash of I don't know what?

Here is a 4s snippet of a recording, there is flash at 3s.

Tonight I doubled the amount of ram in the mythbox to 1G. I removed the "alias tveeprom" and 'alias tuner" so the kernel modules would be loaded. lirc_i2c loads cleanl now. However, the flashes still appear in recordings. I really wish I new what was causing this.


Wow, I finally was able to play back your clip (VLC didn't seem to do it and Safari on Mac mangled the file, but mplayer from a firefox download worked). Thats a very strange flash. I got a screen grab of it. Its a partially shifted (or interlaced) frame that only occurs for a single frame. This needs someone from the dev list to look at it, so I'm cross posting it to that list.

Here's the screen grab (its a tiff, and its 776 Kb) :
