I've had a Mythbuntu 8.04 system running well since it was released (aside from the volume control not working).<br>
I usually install whatever upgrades the system prompts me to without
checking them out very carefully so I'm not sure exactly what caused
this but...<br>
About 1-2 weeks ago my system started jumping right to the end of
recordings whenever I try to fast-forward or skip ahead. Of course this
means I can't commercial skip!<br clear="all">When jumping forward (or backwards for that matter) the program jumps
all the way to the end. Actually I'm not sure if it jumps to the
beginning or the end of the show. The timeline bar seems to indicate
that has jumped to the end - the bar is full and the time shown is the
total time of the recording - but then the program starts over from the
beginning again.<br>
When fast-forwarding at 3x it appears to fast-forward just fine but
when I try to go back into play mode it does it's thing and jumps to
the end.<br>
When fast-forwarding at 5x or greater it simply jumps straight to the end.<br>
Everything works fine in LiveTV mode. This is only a problem with recorded shows.<br>

Weird. And frustrating.<br><br>-- <br>"If a theory can't produce hypotheses, can't be tested, can't be disproven, and can't make predictions, then it's not a theory and certainly not science." by spisska on Slashdot, Monday April 21, 2008
