I had myth setup on a XP2100 processor system and everything worked quite well. Now that I have upgraded to a new computer with a P4 3.2Ghz processor, during live TV, mythfrontend actually uses more of my CPU. Sometimes up to 99%. When this happens I get a prebuffering pause and the video kind of

My setup has worked fine until recently (the past week or two) I keep
getting recordings with no sound. Sometimes when I'm watching
live tv I will get no sound on certain channels and have to change the
channel. I think I saw this brought up before, but no one had a
solution? I figure I probably
Make sure you get a quiet case fan. Also get a quiet fan for your
CPU. Also make sure you get a hard drive that is quiet. I would also
get a vid card that doesn't have a fan. Any processor will work fine.

Make sure you know which device your sound card is being labeled as.
To test this just locate a .au file that is already on your machine.
Then do a $cat filename.au /dev/dsp
If that doesn't work try it again with /dev/dsp1 or /dev/audio, etc.
Then of course you have to change your settings
The fan on my AMD XP2100 is really loud and I want to upgrade to

I would appreciate any ideas, suggestions, comments :D

I need a dial-up modem that will work under the 2.6 kernel. (I'm

supported for the 2.4 kernel. I would like to find a reasonably

I would say more people use that video card for MythTV then any other
card. If you want it to be quiet make sure and get one that doesn't
have a fan, just a heatsink.

How about about far as updating the system? I can understand not
wanting to upgrade the distro, but how safe is it updating your
system? What is your preferred method and how often do you do it?

You could probably do a search on this list and find about 50 threads
with this same question. Or you could look at the requirements on

Hondaman,
Somehow your machine is recording something. To check what it is go
into Manage, which should be right underneath Watch TV. There should
be a show that is highlighted green and that is the one that is
getting recorded. You can just hit the right arrow key while you
select that
Andrew,
Put this near the beginning of your /etc/modprobe.conf file:
alias msp3400-ivtv msp3400
Anything that you recorded previous to doing this will have no sound
as it wasn't captured. Log out and log back in just for good measure
too. Have fun with your system.

It seems that this takes up 30-45% of my cpu even when I'm not
recording. It is ran as root. Is it supposed to be running all of
the time and if not how do I get rid of it? I turned off commercial
flagging in mythfronend, but that didn't seem to do the trick.
Maybe fixing this will make it so
I recently downloaded and installed MythTV. The documentation clearly
and concisely guided me through the initialization and configuration of
both the required MySQL database and the Myth Backend itself. I've
rarely had such a good software installation/configuration experience

If you can move the sound card to another IRQ in your BIOS setup and
see if that solves your problem. Heck, share it with some other device
instead of your PVR-250. If it fixes the ff/rew lockups, please let me
know! :)
Well I moved my PVR 250 so it doesn't share an IRQ with anything else.
First off thanks so much to this list and to Jared for helping me set
up a working mythtv box. My setup:

My system works quite well recording shows, and even watching live tv

Do me a favour and lspci -v and paste the results, I'm curious to
see if your PVR card is sharing an IRQ with your video card. I have
yet to confirm if it really is the IRQ sharing, because it works on a
machine that allows me to assign IRQ's, and it locks up on one that
doesn't (and thus
