Hello,
i have 2 Problems with DVB Recording.
My configuration:
Debain Woody with 2.6.0-test11 kernel.
Technotrend Budget DVB-C Card, Hauppauge bttv.
1. If i start my Computer and after some time like 30 minutes a recording from
my DVB-C Card starts, the recorded file has a size of 0, and in the backend
log i can read this:
2003-12-15 09:31:05 Started recording "Wissenschaft: Schwerpunkt
" on channel: 1040 on cardid: 2, sourceid 2
2003-12-15 09:31:05 Started recording "Wissenschaft: Schwerpunkt
" on channel: 1040 on cardid: 2, sourceid 2
2003-12-15 09:31:05 DVB#0 WARNING - Invalid fec_inner parameter '(null)',
falling back to 'auto'.
2003-12-15 09:31:05 Changing from None to RecordingOnly
2003-12-15 09:31:05 DVB#0 Recorder: Card opened successfully.
2003-12-15 09:31:06 DVB#0 WARNING - No data from card in 1 second.
the last message is repeated every second until the endtime of the recording.
If i restart the Computer, after the reboot the recording is started again,
now showing this in the backend log:
2003-12-15 09:42:23 DVB#0 Using DVB card 0, with frontend VES1820 based DVB-C
frontend.
2003-12-15 09:42:23 DVB#0 WARNING - Invalid fec_inner parameter '(null)',

2003-12-15 09:42:29 DVB#0 WARNING - Transport Stream Continuity Error.
Audiostream: Layer: 2 BRate: 192 kb/s Freq: 48.0 kHz

Like it should be, i think.
Now the recording works right.
I can reproduce this every day and this makes DVB recording nearly useless.
I am Using the 2.6.0-test11 kernel and the kernels own DVB drivers, so i
thougt this could be a driver problem, but i have no problems when recording
with czap and ts2ps. This problem is only produced by mythTV.
I hope that somewone help me out with this.
The second problem occures when i try to make a DVD from a sucsessfull DVB
Recording. i do it in this way.
1. use PVAstrumento with wine to repair possible errors in the movie. As the
result i get an .mpa and an .mpv file.
2. I use mplex -f8 -o test.mpeg test1.mpv test1.mpa to remux the video for DVD
Video.
3. dvdauthor -o testdvd1/ -t test.mpeg
4. dvdauthor -o testdvd1/ -T
then i burn the resulting files to a DVD under Windows with Nero.
Playing the DVD with my Standalone DVD-Player results in a green Picture where
only the canges were shown.
So i think there must be a problem with the keyframes?
Doing the same with an mpeg file produced with ts2ps makes a working DVD.
thank you for reading this,
