I have noticed that when I play a recorded show using vlc (in other words playing the file directly from disk not through the client) that it frequently reports that my recordings are shorter than they really are.<br><br><div>

Is there a way to figure out whether NBC is using an odd framerate for<br>_Studio 60_?<br><br>When watching a recording of the pilot episode of NBC's _Studio 60 on<br>the Sunset Strip_ that aired on Monday, 18 September, I noticed that
<br>the OSD displayed the recording length as about 50 minutes for what<br>is, of course, an hour-long show. At the time I was experimenting with<br>using NFS to mount my NAS's filesystem, and dismissed the odd result<br>
as a result of the same frame-dropping/recording-corrupting issue that<br>caused me to abandon NFS in the first place<br>(<URL:<a href="http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/169825#169825">http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/169825#169825
</a>>).<br><br>However--having since returned to using CIFS to mount the NAS--playing<br>the second episode's recording results in the OSD showing a<br>total-recording length of 51 minutes. The recording is intact and is
<br>7.3GB in size, exactly in line with what an hour-long HD recording<br>from a broadcast-network affiliate shoud be<br>(<URL:<a href="http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/175520#175520">http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/175520#175520
</a>>).<br>This leads me to think that perhaps the issue I describe in SVN ticket<br>#1941 (<URL:<a href="http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/1941">http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/1941</a>>), which still<br>exists in
0.20 but heretofore only affected premium-movie channels, is<br>at work here. I have not seen this issue with any other NBC shows or<br>other broadcast networks' shows.<br><br>--<br>Yeechang Lee <<a href="mailto:ylee@pobox.com">
