I have to use the -mencoder option to nuvexport, otherwise
mythtranscode seems to leak memory like a seive. Unfortunately,
nuvexport does not have an easy way to export to dvd when using
the -mencoder flag.

My mythtv box has been locking up occasionally. It has always been a
little bit flakey due to the crappy windows driver for my marvell

not loading ndiswrapper by default. Unfortunately, I'm still seeing

Your CPU seems a little slow to do a good job playing HDTV unless you
use XvMC. XvMC has been rather touchy for me (from 0.17, and through
fairly recent SVNs) and I find myth to be much more stable with
XvMC turned off. Since I have a 3Ghz P4, I

Yes, I've got a very similar setup (3.0GHz P4, Nv5200), and I've

I've upgraded to a recent subversion for the DVB features, but

I'm trying to setup my new Fusion HDTV5 Gold to use QAM256 from my

well, but Mythtv's setup has me confused. I'm running Mythtv from

At least for US users, channel numbering for DVB boards is pretty
confusing. I was hoping for some info on what the current
"best practice" is for setting up DVB channels.
When you do a channel scan, mythtv picks up a channel number from the
DVB broadcast. For example, in my area, fox HDTV is "

I have a DVD that I'm trying to view, but it is either scratched or

I'm looking for some basic advice from others who are running at
1080i. I've got a direct view CRT HDTV which takes DVI and component
input. I'm trying to get 1080i working from my myth box (running FC3).
I've tried the following video cards over DVI with the following results:

I just set up my Air2PC last night, and I ran into one unexpected
problem.
I have one digital station (WUNC) which is strong enough to show up
when doing the scan and get added, but it is multipathed badly enough
that the backend will get a lock, loose the lock, get the lock, loose
the lock, etc,
