[mythtv-users] 0.18.1 DVB-S Stuttering

Hi,

I've [almost] successfully upgraded from MythTV 0.16 to 0.18.1 but I have a
new DVB-S "stuttering" problem.

I playback DVB-S recording through a PVR350 output.  I'm using SuSE Linux
9.1 with a 2.6.8 kernel and the DVB drivers from the kernel source.

With the upgrade to MythTV 0.18.1 DVB-S playback - or Live DVB-S watching -
is like a broken CD - its all stuttering which small samples looping before
jumping on to the next set of looping samples - I'd guess maybe 1/10 of a
second loops about 4 times and then jumps on 400ms to the next looping
samples.

I wonder if my problem is the older kernel DVB drivers - I saw a warning
with the MythTV 0.18.1 compile telling me that its ok not to specify the DVB
driver source directory if I'm using kernel DVB drivers with a kernel
version > 2.6.9 I think.  But I choose to ignore this because it compiled
nicely - until it was pointed out to me that it hasn't been recording
CBEEBIES (Children's channels) on satellite correctly this morning!

Thanks for any help,

Derek
