[mythtv-users] backend takes 100% CPU recording DVB-T

Hello,

I'm running 0.19 and I'm finding that the backend is taking 100% when
recording DVB-T from my Nova-T card.

This makes Live TV impossible because it has no CPU time left for playback.

I would expect the backend to only take a small amount of CPU time
because it's basically just saving the MPEG-2 stream to a file.

I'm thinking that maybe there is some transcoding going on, however I
think I've disabled all transcode options.

Does anyone out there have a Nova-T running with a reasonable CPU usage?

Thanks,
Chris.
