[mythtvnz] Problems with DVB-T

Hi,

Last week I bought a Nova-500-TD card. I already had a DVB-S card at
that stage. I had no problems with adding the channels and everything
worked fine (so it seemed at the time). I scheduled some recordings
and discovered that it's not as rosy as it initially looked.

Last night I've recorded 'one news' at 6pm. After initial few minutes
the recording turned unwatchable with serious sound drop-offs and a
lot of tearing.
I turned the debug on and that's what I've got:

In terms of setup I use gentoo (using overlays, relatively recent
version of mythtv 23442), video card is a nvidia ge8200 with slim
vdpau profile.
I tried to play it using mplayer but it complained in the same places
(FAAD2). Playing using VLC under windows wasn't much success either.

What do you think might be the problem here?

kind regards
Pshem
