My recorded shows and Live TV are getting a minor video freeze for ~1 frame every few seconds. It appears to be related to disk activity, but I don't know how to troubleshoot this. This type of freeze is more noticeable with pans or tickers scrolling across the screen. Not too bad with talking heads.
<br><br>I'm recording through the s-video and rca audio inputs. (I also have a slight lip sync problem that is about a frame off, but maybe that is related to the freezes?)<br><br>Any suggestions on what to try and change or look at would be greatly appreciated. If there is other information I can get from the system that would help narrow in on this please let me know.
