I have been using LVRs patches for a few weeks. They provide some nice features I have been missing, here two examples:

  1. Get preview in files without a seektable: I use my own copy of mythnettv that imports shows from sites like youtube. The preview I used to get was a black first frame, now it works perfectly.
  2. OSD that shows audio levels: check out the screenshot

Many more are also useful, especially for UK users on Freesat.

Today I started posting the Mythbuntu development packages to my PPA with these patches. Check them out here. Be aware that I don’t usually have the time to realy test these packages, so make backups of your database before you use them!

Update: No need to keep the packages as all relevant patches are now in mainline MythTV
