[mythtv-users] stuttering sound

[Paul Koster]

Small update to my problem, hoping that anybody has a hint or solution to my
problem:
I tried another video card -> no change
I tried another audio card (sb/ensonique es1370) -> no change
I tried MythTV 0.13, MythTV 0.14 and finally CVS -> no change

The sound stays okay for some time (seconds) now and then and then starts
stuttering again.
