One Step Forward - Two steps back.  I fixed the audio, but have a more
annoying problem now.  It found that you have to put the full path of
the video in when building the seektables like so:

"mythcommflag --video /path/to/video.avi".

I was launching it in the directory with just the filename, so in the
filemarkup table, it was just entering the file name.  Once I ran the
full explict path, it eliminated the sound during fast forward and
rewind.

However, now I have another problem which is almost more annoying.
Now when I fast forward, it creates a garbled static frame image with
large blocky artifacts.  I can no longer see the frames of the video
as I fast forward.  I'm running SVN 14526, so it's about a month or so
old (pre-ffmpeg sync I think).  I'll probably upgrade sometime this
week to see if that helps resolve any issues, but do you guys have any
other thoughts as to why the new seek tables created on this video
would be causing these symptoms?

Thanks!
Matt
