[ivtv-devel] Issues with Playback of IVTV captured video files using Xine

[Rett W. <re...@rt...>]

Hello all:

I am having an issue with the xine 00:00:00 elasped
time display not moving or moving very slowly when
playing streams captured by a WinTV PVR 250 using IVTV drivers.
This also seems to break the use of left and right arrow keys
to navigate the stream.

The video/audio itself looks/plays fine. The issue occurs with
every xine lib/ui combo I have tried after 0.9.13...

Xine-lib-0.9.13/xine-ui-0.9.13 seems to work fine. A small (20MB)
clip of a stream that exhibits the issue is available for download
via anonymous ftp from ftp://ftp.rtwnetwork.com.

I am sure someone may suggest using Mplayer, however seems to use
twice as much CPU as xine, and in all I find it to be a less 'usable'
than xine.

I have posted this twice on the Xine list, but apparently no one is
interested or they are too busy since I have not received any kind of
reply.

Anyone have any ideas???
