[mythtv-users] fast audio and video

[Christopher Flynn]

D'oh I was forcing tuner type=39 from my previous efforts to get the
card to work without patching (which failed) and forgot to set it
back. I'll have to wait until I get home to try it in myth but I did a
cat /dev/video0 > test.mpg works playing back on vlc on my computer
here at work. So hopefully that will fix it.

Hope you get your issues resolved and thaks for trying to help me with mine.
