been having a strange problem for a while now where playback on my<BR>front
end freezes randomly. When it happens, the audio stops playing<BR>and then
about a second later the video freezes. The system is not<BR>hung, as I can
hit the skip back button and the system will back up and<BR>then play right
through the point where it froze before. There is no<BR>discernable pattern
to these freezes. Sometimes the system will go 20<BR>minutes between
freezes, sometime only 20 seconds.<BR><BR>--snip--<BR><BR>Anyone else seen
this problem or have any idea of how I can track it<BR>down?
Thanks.<BR></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>I wish I had a solution for you, but all I can say
is that I, too, have been experiencing this problem since day one - I believe
that it is related to the PVR-350 somehow, but don't know enough to comment
further.<BR><BR>I understand that improvements have been made to the
Myth/PVR-350 combo in recent SVN builds, but I'm currently holding out for the
next stable branch/release/insert-appropriate-terminology-here.
<BR><BR>Before upgrading to ivtv-0.4.0, I also encountered frequent (i.e., at
least once per day) hard-and-complete lockups of the PVR-350 framebuffer when
watching recordings - the OSD would pop up if I pressed rewind, but the actual
buffer was locked. As you can imagine, this made for some
stressfull "will it or won't it?" moments whenever it would
freeze.<BR><BR>Since upgrading to 0.4.0, the hard lockups have been much less
frequent, perhaps once per viewing week. Still not gone, but
better.<BR><BR>My $0.02.<BR><BR>Best,<BR>
