Yes I use this combination. I'm running MythTV 0.23.1 on the backend and XBMC 10.1 on a couple of different frontends, Ubuntu 10.10 based PC's. I have always experienced the problem with XBMC reporting wrong recording lengths (Freeview Terrestrial), often it will report a 30 minute recording as somewhat over 2 hours, and occasionally it's wildly off for example reporting a recording as more than 200 hours long! <div>
<br></div><div>Most of the time it doesn't cause a problem though occasionally the time line seems so corrupt that it becomes impossible to skip or fast forward without playback bombing out. However in these cases I believe there may actually be a problem with the recording as it won't play in other media players either. Possibly a signal strength problem, although my Freeview signal level is reported as around 86% by my HDHomeRun tuner with 100% symbol quality. I don't know what the problem is. If anyone else has more information on this topic I'd be interested to hear as well.</div>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">Just wondering if anyone else is using this combo, 1 in every 10 or so<br>
recordings have what seems like strange metadata and end up doing<br>
strange things when it comes to playback.<br>
<br>
Things like the wrong length information (recordings say they are 2hrs<br>
when they are only 1) or recordings that can't be skipped so when you<br>
try to jump past ads or other points the playback just stops because<br>
xbmc seems to think the recoding has finished.<br>
<br>
Would be keen to hear is anyone else using this combo and having<br>
similar issues or who may have solved this issue.<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
