[mythtv-users] Weird video problem

I am kind of new to this so please excuse my ignorance.  I have followed the
step by step that Jarrod provided for Fedora Core 1.  I am using a Biostar
M7NCD NForce2 with Athlon XP2400 (2GHz) chip.  I am using an AverTV capture
card (I have a WinTV but am starting with the other) for capturing TV.

 

It doesn't matter if I am using live TV or recorded TV but one out of every
4 channel changes my video goes a dark red.  Kind of like macrovision
protection you see on some DVD or VCR tapes.  Once it does this I have to
exit the show and go back in.  This doesn't always fix the problem though.
Any ideas?  I am using coax TV in to the AverTV card without anything else
in the loop.

 

Also I noticed today that some of the recordings were only 30 seconds long
even though I have 74Gig free on the hard drive.

 

Any ideas?
