[mythtv-users] State of the PVR150/250 in 0.26?

[Bob Cottingham]

I have all of the same issues you do.  Using PVR-150/250s on 0.26
mythbuntu-repos with recordings reporting 5m19s and LiveTV issues.  My wife
is really fed up as she insists on watching live tv and I have to restart
the frontend several times a day.  You are definitely not alone.

Although the time is messed up, the recordings still play fine and I
haven't really noticed any issue with commercial skipping.  My HD Homerun
works just fine.  I'd love to know if there is anything we can do to help
debug this issue.

Bob
