[mythtv] DVB recording issues

[Stuart Cameron]

I get the same problem, I'm using X-Box Media Center to play back PS 
recordings (via the python frontend scripts for MythTV) and individual audio 
tracks also drop out for me during patches of signal noise and never come 
back.

If I demultiplex the nuv file using something like ProjectX then the 
extracted audio streams stop at the same point there too.

When it occurs I can sometimes switch to the MPEG-2 audio track in the .nuv 
if I'm watching with AC3 and continue playing with that instead, but 
sometimes it's dropped out by that point as well. Here in Melbourne I seem 
to primarily get the problem with Channel 7, for whatever reason (probably 
just my signal to noise ratio on that channel, considering my poor antenna).

As an interesting little side effect, I find that seeking back and forth in 
a nuv recording in XBMC suddenly takes a whole lot longer when seeking 
beyond the point where audio cuts out, also indicating that something is 
probably amiss in the recorded streams.
