Re: [mythtv-users] DVD recording sync issues with PVR 350

Most likely due to changing A/V sync within the MPEG2 stream. It's a known problem without a known (bug-free) solution. Cory, Is this just a known issue for hardware-MPEG2-card recorded streams, or all MPEG2 streams in general? I regularly record DVB and PVR-350 streams here in the UK, demu

Make sure that you only have one msp3400 module.. I got stuck with something similar and it was because when I installed the bttv drivers (to get tuner.ko) it built its own, which won't work. Michael T. Dean wrote: > Dave Pearson wrote: > >> I have a PVR-250, which is working perfectly for the co
