[mythtv-users] Slight picture jerk every 10secs

[Dan Robinson]

Guys,

I'm running the latest setup from Jarod's guide along with 2 Nova-T
cards.  Since moving to FC2 and the latest DVB modules then stability
has really improved.  However, I'm noticing that when recording on
both cards and watching a previous recording, then I get a slight
picture jerk every 10 to 15 secs.  There isn't a jump in sound, it
just looks like some frames get skipped.  I don't think my system is
really being over worked, but I could be wrong.

I have an Athlon 1900 and 512GB memory.  I'm recording to a Samsung
120GB disk, with OS and swap etc on a Western 80GB.

Could someone give me some pointers as to how I can determine where
the problem might be?  Would 'top' give me enough info?

Danny
