I am having an issue with a new FE build. To start, it's an Optiplex 760 w/ Mythbuntu 9.04 x64. It is using an Intel onboard video:<br><br>00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)<br>
<br>And a Creative Audigy 5.1 with SPDIF out:<br><br>03:02.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy (rev 03)<br><br>For the video, I'm using the method posted here for drivers:<br><br><a href="http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582" target="_blank">http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582</a><br>
<br>This has been giving me a great video experience, that is, until a couple days ago. I was watching a recording off of my HD PBS channel (47.1). It was the National Parks special. I had watched a few episodes without issue. At one point during a recording, the recording just stopped playing. I tried to bring up the INFO display and it didn't come up. I tried to ping the FE, and it did respond. So I assumed it was something else. Possibly the recording was screwy. The FE finally stopped the recording, and I was able to start the recording over again. Then the next night, it happened again. Then today it's happened a couple times but this time on a 30 minute non-HD (but digital channel 47.3) recording. So I tried the ping, and it responded fine. However, I tried to SSH and VNC into the FE, and it didn't respond. I looked at dmesg and the messages log and they didn't show any errors. So I thought, maybe it was something with the FE. I ran a:<br>
<br>mythfrontend -v all -l /home/user/mfe.log<br><br>And that's not showing any errors. The FE finally stopped the playback and went back to the Recordings menu. This hasn't happened on a different HD recording on a different digital channel (43.1). Is this just possibly an error in the digital channels broadcast? Does anyone have any ideas what this could be? Any ideas on what other logs I could look at? Thanks!<br>

</blockquote></div><br>Just as a follow up. I've found that this also happens with MythMusic. I can be listening to music playing, when all of the sudden, it will stop. However, after several minutes, the music starts back up again, right where it left off. I think this is related to my backend. I have a huge torrent running right now and I believe that the BE is having difficulties with too many TCP connections. Hopefully, this stops when the torrent is done.<br>
