Whats your FE/BE setup? Any BE slaves in the mix? Client side log would be 
helpful.

Sorry there is no slaves in the mix

FE was running on an AMD based Ubuntu 8.10 system with Nvidia 6800
BE running Mythbuntu 9.10 on an Intel based system

Unfortunately I upgraded my FE to mythbuntu 9.10 and installed xbmc 9.11 but now
Mythbox is slow as molases it takes 10 seconds for it to respond to any input.

I give up !

Have you listed the directory Mythtv 0.22 uses for livetv recording in the 
mythbox
settings? If you haven't (I missed it the first time through) this will produce 
the
symptoms you are seeing. Check your storage directories in the Mythtv backend 
and add
the livetv path to the 'recording directory(s)' field in Mythbox settings.

Hope yours is quick fix like this,
Dan

Hi.

I'm seeing this in my setup as well. Currently I using Myth-0.22+fixes on 
Ubuntu 9.10 
as the BE and Mythbox with the latest xbmc-svn build available for Ubuntu by 
team-xbmc 
ppa (https://launchpad.net/~team-xbmc-svn) for the FE. I have attached my 
mythbox.log 
file as well as my setting.xml file. The directory listing in the settings.xml 
is an 
NFS mounted directory.

Yes my directory for live tv was set to the same as the recording directory.

I was reading for like 3 days searching forums and all.

I guess I will wait for XBMC to come out with their unified PVR distro.

BTW I do have my xbox working with myth2xbmc script and working just fine with 
the
last stable babylon version of xbmc the latest svn gave me rendering issues and 
utf-8
conversion warnings.

Aksor, can't help ya if you don't attach your xbmc.log

Mark Birnie, I haven't tried out the latest xbmc svn but looking at mythbox.log 
I 
didn't see anything unusual. xbmc.log would have more detail.

Here's my xbmc.log. Sorry, but I don't have xbmc debugging turned on.

FYI I'm using XBMC Live with the latest mythbox script everything is working 
except
for the livetv.

I have configured my mythbackend 0.22 storage options as follows 

recordings /var/lib/mythtv/recordings
livetv /var/lib/mythtv/livetv

I then cifs shared them as recordings and livetv

I've locally mounted both the recordings and livetv samba shared folders from 
the
backend and added them to the mythbox recording path as 
/mnt/recordings:/mnt/livetv

I hope that is the proper way of doing it

anyways I attached the log files as requested

just a note for some reason in the xbmc log the livetv section is looking for 
the
stream as myth://xxxx:xxxx@ip/channels/channel.ts  and my livetv streams have 
mpg
extensions! 

Thanks

Your log file indicates you're using XBMC 9.04. However, 9.04 is not supported. 
As 
stated in the README, XBMC 9.11 is required. Re-open if you have a problem w/ 
9.11
