MythTV 0.22 Upgrade

Started playing with the new version of Mythbuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala,witch comes bundled with MythTV 0.22

I performed a clean install on a new hard disk from the CD, which went fairly easily, and then downloaded a bunch of updates.

Setup the tuner cards
downloaded and installed tv_grab_nz-py and setup with the required channels
setup a playback option for nvidia

Problems...

Video jumpy/skipping frames - seemed to be the fact that the correct frame sizes needed to be setup, the are found under
setup->tv settings->recording profiles->mpeg-2 encoders->default
and set to capture width and height to 768 x 576 for default and live tv

At the moment still switching between 0.21 and 0.22 till I am happy with the way that 0.22 is running, and all the other add-ons are back up and running.
