Subject: [mythtv-users] recordings affecting playback

This only happens once a week, because I only have multiple recordings on Wed. evenings. Watching the (earlier recorded) news while two other recordings are in progress results in momentary freezes and accelerated catch-ups. Here are some logs:  https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/BCyHYXtH6h/  (frontend)
and: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/h539DKRnnr/  (backend)
This is a fresh install of Ubuntu 20.04 with Mythtv v31. If we do get a new fall season of network TV I'd like to be ready for it. TIA  Daryl


HD video is probably more than your CPU can handle in software.  What does "top" report on FE while playing back?
