I'm afraid that is a hardware problem and there's no software solution.

The only way to be sure is to check how this stuff works with
Windoze. This is going to take a while

DVD standard limits bitrate to 448kbits, though ac3 allows up to 640kbit.
DTS is an older, less common format.

Hi,
I am running a mythtv box based on Mandriva 2007 on a AMD 3200xp (Dual
