[mythtv] Useage of myth on 64bit platforms

All 4 of my mythtv systems run on OpenSuSE 11.2, and only one of them is an i586. The rest are x64 (atom, athlon and Core2 Duo). In fact, my main frontend / backend outputs digital sound (optical) to a Creative amplifier. I haven't noticed any sound issues lately on any of them. I am running the latest trunk. 

Regards,

Yianni.

Subject: [mythtv] Useage of myth on 64bit platforms






Over the last few months, I’ve been encountering problems with 5.1 AC3 DVD content (refer ticket #8792), but only when myth is configured for 5.1 sound.  If the frontend is configured for stereo, it all works perfectly.  One of my colleagues  has a more extreme version of the problem where all content playback is affected (not just DVD).  The issue is definitely relatively recent (started around the May timeframe for me).
 
What has surprised me is that no one else seems to be seeing this, and it just occurred to me that perhaps the issue is 64 bit related.  I can confirm that the two known cases of this issue are on 64 bit platforms, but I was wondering how many others out there are running 64 bit?  The other factor in common is that we both run OpenSuSE, although different versions (11.1 and 11.2).
 
Cheers,
Richard.
