Problems with sync

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I have a STB TV PCI card running on a Pentium classic
120Mhz with Mandrake 8.1 (bundled bttv v0.7)

I am using XawTV and while it works, once in awhile,
the picture would lose sync and I would lose both
video and audio. It seems to be especially bad when
the computer is accessing the hard drive, making me
suspect a timing issue with the CPU loading. I've
isolated the problem to something beyond the tuner
because I get the same problem if I tune in to Channel
3 and use the VCR as the RF tuning source.

Has anyone else had this problem, and know of a
potential solution (other than a hardware upgrade)?
THe pictures would come in really clear, and then
slowly get really bright before it loses sync
completely. I've tried fine-tuning to no avail.

Any thoughts on this matter would be appreciated.
