I looked through the saa7127 code but didn't see anything in there that would act on its own - it basically just does what it's told to do. From my system logs: <I started watching a recorded program here> Aug 4 17:04:45 [kernel] ivtv: Allocate DMA decoder MPEG stream: 16 x 65536 buffers (1024KB total) Aug 4 17:04:45 [kernel] ivtv: Allocate DMA decoder VBI stream: 512 x 2048 buffers (1024KB total) Aug 4 17:04:45 [kernel] ivtv: Decoder VBI RE-Insert start 0x0019ac00 size 0x0000be00 type 1 Aug 4 17:04:46 [kernel] saa7127: Turn CC output on - Last output repeated twice - <MythTV started a commercial skip at this point> Aug 4 17:14:41 [kernel] saa7127: Turn CC output off Aug 4 17:14:41 [kernel] ivtv: Decoder VBI RE-Insert start 0x0019ac00 size 0x0000be00 type 1 <I think I tried starting the program again here to see if CC would come back on> Aug 4 17:17:31 [kernel] ivtv: Decoder VBI RE-Insert start 0x0019ac00 size 0x0000be00 type 1 Aug 4 17:27:23 [kernel] ivtv: Allocate DMA decoder MPEG stream: 16 x 65536 buffers (1024KB total) Aug 4 17:27:23 [kernel] ivtv: Allocate DMA decoder VBI stream: 512 x 2048 buffers (1024KB total) Aug 4 17:27:23 [kernel] ivtv: Decoder VBI RE-Insert start 0x0019ac00 size 0x0000be00 type 1 ...etc. I started watching at 17:04:45, and CC was working. At 17:14:41 there was a commercial break. CC was turned off and MythTV skipped over the commercials and continued playing, but CC was never turned back on, and from this point on they don't ever turn back on.The same thing happens if I manually skip forward or backwards. CC turns off, but never turns back on. Daniel _______________________________________________ mythtv-dev mailing list mythtv-dev [at] mythtv http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-dev
