[mythtv-users] 1hr show == 66 minutes?

When watching one hour HD shows recorded by my Air2PC, I've noticed
that the progress meter claims the show is 1:05:29 long.  This is
off by roughly 10% from the real length of the show.

I'm hoping that this may explain why commercial skip isn't working for
me.  What I'm seeing is that commercials are flagged, but at the wrong
points in the show.  At first, the flagged commercials are nearly dead
on, but as the show progresses, they get further and further out of
sync.  By the end of the show, the commercials are off by 5 minutes or
so.

I don't know if this is HD only because I do not have an analog tuner
card.  I'm running CVS from Feb 27th.  I'm using XVmc, and analog
(/dev/dsp) sound.

Any ideas what I can do I get rid of this time dilation?  I'm not using
time-stretch (though I've tried it, and its really, really cool).

Thanks,

Drew
