[mythtvnz] Nova-T 500 working with Freeview HD

[Aaron Drysdale]

I'm just trying to download this file now. I hadn't thought to post a clip - great idea.
 
I tried playing an HD clip from TV1 in mplayer - its a clip from the tennis this morning that was full of blockiness - and it played fine. The audio quickly got out of sync, but the video was much better and didn't show any blockiness. I've got JYA's mplayer as well - how do I ensure its using VDPAU?
 
I got the same error message about max number of reference frames exceeded. I haven't modified the file in any way, its just an mpg file from my recordings directory.

I'm not sure what I'm supposed to see here.

The video has some slight corruption in the first few seconds, but
this is related to the stream itself being corrupted (probably the way
the file was truncated).

It plays fine after that.

I see the exact same errorrs in mplayer using software decoding:
([h264 @ 0xd673c0]number of reference frames exceeds max (probably
corrupt input), discarding one)

Nothing wrong here from a mythtv perspective. You can't expect to play
properly a corrupted input stream..
