[mythtv-users] DVB subtitles not shown

Are those budget cards or not ? I had strange problems with my premium card
when the hw-decoding was enabled. I disabled it and everything seems to work
(premium card is tehcnotrend, so I think it is pretty much the same as
hauppauge).
Odd thing is that when I disabled hw from the card, it still does not use
much
cpu time.

No idea if this helps, hope it does tho.
