It's possible. Also note that the HD-3000 presents an audio device (I
think) and that might have interfered with your setup.

No. But the more people provide feedback, the sooner they will be.

It's also possible that there's something about the streams that don't
play properly for you that's choking the MPEG decoder in Myth. We've
seen this on occasion when somebody from a new area first tries it out,
since the stations all encode MPEG2 locally. There was an ffmpeg
(decoder) resync recently in CVS, so that might fix it. If not, be
prepared to provide a short clip of a stream that's not playing back
properly -- especially if another player *can* play it properly.
Also, new drivers due to be released next week sometime will increase
the number of DMA buffers the HD-3000 uses, which should fix problems
some people are seeing under load.
