[mythtv] frontend freeze on rewind

[Zach]

Thanks for the reply,

I'll have to start monitoring the ivtv list to see how this plays out.

2 questonions:
(1) What is hardware rw/ff--what hardware would it be "built in" to? 
I'm not using any hardware decoding (like that of the pvr 350) other
that whatever is provided by the nvidia drivers
(2) when you say "modify myth" or "modify ivtv" I assume you're
talking about something beyond simply changing configuration settings?
 Actually patching the code, I assume.
