I recently altered my antenna array and I have some work to do to get
the signal strength back up, however I still would like to know if
there's something I can do about the following errors. Even when
things were "good" I would still have some recordings that would
lockup Myth and now it's happening more frequently. I thought at first
it was just "too much corruption" in the video stream even though myth
is pretty tolerant but checking the log now I saw this:

I tried doing MPEG2->MPEG2 transcoding and it seems to help the
glitchy video (recovers faster) but it doesn't fix the problem. Google
didn't turn up much and nothing recent...

Thanks,
