I'm running 0.27 fixes (Mythbuntu). A month or so ago, I sent
an email to the list where I tried to figure out why my dual
HDPVR/DC6200 system was suddenly giving severe dropouts and
stutters in video (live tv and recordings). The system had been
running for years flawlessly.<br>
<br>
The first thing I did was replace the power supplies on the
HDPVR's. I finally got them in last week, and there were no
changes.<br>
<br>
I then stopped using digital audio and went to a couple of RCA
cables. My issues dropped dramatically, for awhile. Now the
problem is back.<br>
<br>
Watching the playback info, the Storage to Buffer value becomes
a dash '-'. Shortly after, it comes back and the Buffer to
decoder goes to nothing. This results in up to a 20 second loss
of video, and a stutter on audio.<br>

<div>Are you using a combined BE/FE? Are you streaming from the BE
to the FE via myth protocol and storage group?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In the later, data transfer stalls. Check your BE logs for
clues. Dying hard drive is usually the most likely culprit. </div>

Separate BE and FE, using myth protocol and a storage group. The
drive is a DLink external SATA with RAID, and it doesn't give me
smart readings.<br>
<br>
I may try to copy all my video files to an NFSv4 server and get rid
of the local eSATA drives.<br>
