Skip/jump forward broken

Description

I've been using the latest and greatest myth code for some time and before ~10/2 everything was more or less working fine. After returning from holiday, I did an update again and after figuring out that a distclean/new configure was required to resolve various issues I got the software working again.

However, when trying to playback recordings, I have noticed that skipping/jumping forward is working very randomly, but with a tendency to stop working all together.

One of the errors I get sometimes is:

NVP::AddAudioData?():p1: Audio buffer overflow, audio data lost!

but on other occasions there is nothing in the log and playback just stops.

On other occassions I have also seen the playback stopping and returning to the menu.

If I leave a program playing it will play normally.

I also did a run with -v all and I can see the following log entries:

2006-02-21 22:08:33.961 AFD: DoFastForward?(1585 (115), do discard frames) [mpegts @ 0xb7438720]read_seek: 0 5061687072 2006-02-21 22:08:33.962 Broadcasting free space avail 2006-02-21 22:08:33.962 WriteAudio?: Preparing 6144 bytes (1536 frames) 2006-02-21 22:08:33.962 audio waiting for space on soundcard: have 1920 need 6144 2006-02-21 22:08:33.983 audio waiting for space on soundcard: have 6016 need 6144 2006-02-21 22:08:34.007 Broadcasting free space avail 2006-02-21 22:08:34.008 WriteAudio?: Preparing 6144 bytes (1536 frames) 2006-02-21 22:08:34.008 audio waiting for space on soundcard: have 3968 need 6144 ... 2006-02-21 22:08:35.455 Broadcasting free space avail ... repeats forever ...

I then decided to go checkout the 0.19 code from svn, but the same behaviour is there too.

I'm now thinking that I will go back to the code I had before, but if you have any suggestions then please advise.

PS...there is nothing on the wiki that obviously spells out how to get a user id...

Sounds like DB issues.

Please elaborate on what you mean by db issues. How would they have been introduced?

What do you suggest I do? I cannot get this working again and playing up recorded material outside of myth isn't a solution.
