remember which other).  It seemed to occur for me due to the way the
broadcaster had encoded the video.  During the commercial break (when I let
it play through the break--i.e. when I stepped away for a minute),
something would happen that would disable captions and time stretch, and
I'd have to re-enabled them.  I never got to the exact cause (let alone a
fix) because it stopped happening (I'm assuming because of changes to
encoding), but I have a strong suspicion it occurred when there was a
change to refresh rate (i.e. from 720p60 to 720p30) or resolution (i.e.
from 720p60 to 480i60) or something.  If it's something like that, the fix
will involve changing MythTV's code.

I had it happen one time to an edited recording, can't recall if it was
coincident with a break or not. Nothing since
