More BBC HD Problems!

Ankh · 04-20-10, 03:59 AM

Hi,

I've posted a couple of times on here with BBC HD / VDPAU problems and eventually got a stable, working system using mplayer SVN.

However, recent BBC HD recordings have exhibited the video essentially playing at 'half speed' with the audio coming through normally.

It's important to note my older BBC HD recordings (Dec 2008) still play fine. It's only recent recordings that suffer.

It's possible the problem lies in the recording of the stream (MythTV SVN version in Nov 2009), rather than the playback, so in the first instance I wanted to check with 'the community' to see if anyone else was experiencing issues with recent BBC HD recordings.

A WORKSFORME is equally useful.

TIA

Rich.

I'm running mythtv using version 0.23 as setup by the mythbuntu control centre and HD both live and recordings work fine for me. It's currently pulling in drivers 190.53.
This is on ubuntu 32 bit laptop and workstation from a back end server

Complete, uncut output of mplayer missing and please try -demuxer lavf.
You could also upload a sample to ftp://ffmpeg.org/MPlayer/incoming/ (write only) and report the filename here.

Thanks for that Carl.

Your response gave me a sense of deja-vu and sure enough, I've been here before:

In my defense, I have moved house since then and must have cleared out more 'junk' than i thought

Cheers,

Rich.
