[mythtv-users] Record defaulting to PAL vice NTSC

[Jay Camp]

(Posting again to previous thread so that threaded clients and the archiver
gets everything together.)

I'm having the same problem...everything has been great before going to .13.
My tv tuner is by prolink, so it doesn't look like it's specific to any one
card here.

I've tried a clean db and have the same problem. I got it working once when
unloading/reloading bttv and its friends, but I haven't been able to
reproduce the fix again. :(
