I captured the output of "mythfrontend -v all" because I only get a black screen and an unresponsive computer if I try to view any video in mythtv. I can record just fine. I can view the mythtv recorded files with mplayer with sound. I can do a mplayer /dev/video0 and that works fine video an all. LiveTV or trying to watch any of the recorded video in mythtv results in a race condition that denys all access to the compter and only a hard reset will bring it out of this race condition.
Htere is what I see repeated over and over from the "mythfrontend -v all" capture 2005-08-28 16:50:28.985 audio waiting for buffer to fill: have 3072 want 4096 2005-08-28 16:50:28.985 Broadcasting free space avail 2005-08-28 16:50:28.989 audio waiting for buffer to fill: have 3072 want 4096 2005-08-28 16:50:28.989 Broadcasting free space avail 2005-08-28 16:50:28.993 audio waiting for buffer to fill: have 3072 want 4096 2005-08-28 16:50:28.993 Broadcasting free space avail more info to help you out Suse 9.3 Animal:~ # lspci 0000:00:00.0 Host bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc.
