I'm using the S-Video input on the capture card. I definitely agree that it does not appear to be a problem with the change channel script, but I'm still not sure what to look at. I have the input set up in Myth setup to use the s-video input, and have even tried setting all of the inputs to the same settings, just to make sure.
Anybody have any ideas of what I should check?
Thanks,
