When watching a DVD myth will stop playback taking me back to the menu with
a popup informing me that the video frame buffer has failed to many times.
I have already tried manually increasing the size of the buffers for asound
and restarting ALSA because when running the frontend in verbose mode I saw
where it was complaining about the audio buffer underrun.  I increase the
size of the buffer from 64 to 3072 and it is still happening.  This only
happens on some disks, but on the disks it does happen to it happens at the
same spot every time, I have checked these disks for physical damage but
didn't find anything but a couple of finger prints which I preceded to
clean.  I don't know what else to check for in this case any help will be
gratefully appreciated.  If it helps here is my output

Also side question what kind of mixer is mythtv looking for for volume
controls?  On my system I see a /dev/mixer /dev/mixer1 and /dev/mixer2 I'm
not sure why i have mor than one but I only have one sound card and a
HVR-950Q connected to my system.
