Could you please try the attached patch to the cx18 driver to not load<br>
the firmware twice? Things to expect:<br>
<br>
1. The first analog capture shouldn't have problems<br>
</blockquote><div><br><br><br>Andy, yes this appears to have fixed the first time capture. I rebooted
twice to verify. I did not see the accelerated audio. I only see the
intermittent video and the odd audio skip as mentioned previously with
SVideo capture.<br>
<br>
<br>
With regard to my previous attempt to test this patch, the ivtv module
was the culprit for the poor results. I modified lirc_pvr150.c to load
cx18 instead. I attached the changes I made. <br>

2. If you unload and reload the cx18 driver, the digital TS will *not*<br>
work until you unload and reload the cx18 driver *another* time<br>
<br>
3. *Hopefully* your audio skips will disappear.<br>
<br>
4. You will likely still need buffered playback, either with MythTV or<br>
mplayer -cache blah blah blah...<br>
<br>
