[mythtv-users] Mythbuntu 8.04 and HDHR owner willing to run a short test?

I cannot watch KQED and it seems there is no one in the SF area to run a
test for me so I found a more general test.  Can someone help me isolate
this problem?
This works with other distributions but I would like to know if other
Mythbuntu 8.04-HDHR users have the problem or not.

1) Set myth backend setup connections so that the HDHR is set to Quick Tune
"Always"  Do this for both channels.
2) Record a show.
3) Run this command: "hdhomerun_config FFFFFFFF get /tuner0/program"  while
the show is being recorded.
4) Note the output.


If you get a "0", like I do, then I know it is a mythbuntu 8.04 bug.  If you
get a non-zero, then it is something in my setup.

Note.  I get a "1" in live TV and can play KQED in live TV so it would seem
that it is not a HDHR problem.  I cannot playback a KQED recording in mythtv
although I can play it in mplayer.  Silicon Dust says it is a mythtv bug in
reading the header and that setting quick tune is a work around.  But a work
around that isn't working for me.

Thanks,

Allen
