Hopefully this will be helpful...
I'm having the same issue with svn 12360. Channels/Programs that play
fine in VLC (both the same linux box and a Windows box) do not play in
Myth. My cpu shows ~98% idle and the lock is showing LAM with 98%
signal. About 1/3 of my channels work. I am using QAM with Comcast.
Not sure if it makes a difference or not, but I did upload the 20061231
firmware via the windows hdhomerun_config_gui tool. I am also using the
20061231 libhdhomerun compiled source to initiate the stream to VLC.
I have tried the suggestions in this thread to uncheck the encrypted
setting and to start with a fresh database. For what it is worth, the
channel scan with the encrypted setting checked gave the same results as
the hdhomerun_config tool and all those channels work in VLC.
VLC does spew the following: libdvbpsi: error (PMT deoder): invalid
section (table_id == 0x00). Although it does that on streams that even
Myth plays. VLC happily plays regardless.
With -v record,playback,channel, I get "NVP: Waiting for prebuffer"
constantly spewed. Following is an example:
