It's likely that, with the Quick Tune workaround being used, what<br>
you're experiencing is due to something else. For example, I can't<br>
pull up KQED right now because my HDHomeRun won't lock onto the signal<br>
(high ss, but zero seq). That's due to the vagaries of OTA reception,<br>
though; at night it will be much better. In other words, I'm getting<br>
zero-byte recordings (the classic result of an OTA signal that's not<br>
locked in) instead of complete recordings that can't be played back<br>
without weirding out mythfrontend as the bug you and I have<br>
experienced causes.<br>
<br>
I suggest that you try both Live TV and scheduled recordings from KQED<br>
*at the same time of the day*. If you *consistently* get watchable<br>
recordings from Live TV but buggy recordings from KQED then yes,<br>
there's something to the notion of a bug within Mythbuntu.<br>
