This question rears its ugly head every couple of months but I'm a little baffled by what is needed, minimally, to stream videos from myth.Some people say they're able to play simply by installing dsmyth, clicking on the myth://hostname:6543/xyz.mpg link in the appropriate browser, and the media p

2006-01-10 Thread Andy Foster
I've a similar problem, but I experience it with just about any aspect override option which is not "Off" - except perhaps 4:3.The OSD looks fine initially, but as soon as you enact a aspect ratio change, it's fouled up for all aspect ratios as the OSD is usually pushed down and/or right, going off

[mythtv-users] why does my mythbackend use 100% cpu?

Hi,This is a problem which I've had intermittently for some time now but it seems to be occurring more frequently. Every now and then I wake up/get home from work to find mythbackend eating all available cpu, presumably in some sort of spinlock. This generally renders the backend unusable (no recor

Hi,I'm loathe to ask this because I know the answer is somewhere on this mailing list, but I can't find it for the life of me.There was a discussion quite some time ago about the dvb 'feature' that automatically interrogates the currently tuned-in dvb stream for other channels and adds them to the

[mythtv-users] How to stop mythfilldatabase from adding channels

Is there a way to stop mythfilldatabase from automatically adding channels to the database? For instance, where I have guide data from some undefined xmltv id which does not exist in my db, it will add that channel to the database, despite the fact that I have the channel defined under another id (

I understand there are currently some ongoing 0.17+ issues with playback which may or may not be codec, hardware or performance related, and just wanted to find out if this explains the rather bizarre symptoms I'm getting. To summarise: 1. During watching tv (no recording) All is good. Seeking (t
