[mythtv-users] Fwd: Fedora Core 6 New recordings play back too fast

Mike,

Thanks for your response. The audio was set to 32kHz, so I changed it
to 48kHz as suggested in the Default and Live TV recording profiles,
then tried watching live TV and made a recording. It does not seem to
have had any effect. Here is some additional information:

- Remember that I restored the mythconverg database I had from FC4, so
I think I was using the 32kHz setting before
- I am using the AV Out from my PVR-350, not using my sound card (or
ALSA, right?)
- Whatever the problem is, the audio and video are synchronized

Question:

If I adjust settings in the Live TV profile, are the effects immediate
(no restart of anything required) and can I watch Live TV as a valid
test? Then if it works I can change the Default profile. It just seems
easier than starting a recording each time I make a change.

Thanks in advance for any additional suggestions...

Fred
