#1161: Unable to watch DVB-T input through PVR350 hardware decoder (IVTV)

 As far as I can tell DVB-T recordings are recorded as MPEG-TS and these
 are replayed on the OSD of the PVR-350 through the X-driver. This results
 in very jerky motion, as the OSD is nowhere
 near fast enough for this purpose. When watching recording made from the
 PVR-350 itself (MPEG-PS) the hardware decoder is employed and it works
 great. My current workaround is to "replex" the file in the filesystem to
 MPEG-PS. It plays back fine then, but discards information such as aspect
 ratio and subtitles, apparently.

 It used to work (somewhat) with mythtv-0.18.1, but that was probably due
 to
 the fact that it was setup to convert MPEG-TS to MPEG-PS while recording.
 I
 have noticed a ticked (#222) saying that this was then switched off, as it
 ruined
 too many things, and that MPEG-TS replay should be usable instead.

 I used the gentoo package, SVN#8642 for testing, IVTV-0.4.2, Linux kernel
 2.6.14-gentoo-r5. Hardware is 2xPVR350, 1xNova-T.

 Attaching log of "mythfrontend -v all,noaudio,nodatabase".
