Comment 91 for bug 439163

Hi dmb
Good news from here!
Now after path 20091103 was applied to 9.10 the video quality is very close to that it was in 9.04.

what I did:
On a myth fresh install
1. Enabled PPA repos as of http://www.mythbuntu.org/files/mythbuntu-repos.deb
2. sudo apt-get update | sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
3. sudo apt-get install build-essential mercurial linux-headers-generic libncurses5-dev
4. hg clone http://hg.kewl.org/v4l-dvb-20091103/
5. cd v4l-dvb-20091103
6. sudo make menuconfig
# -> Multimedia Support -> DVB/ATSC adapters -> disable FireDTV and FloppyDTV
7. make
    Some warning but they seem unrelevant
8. sudo make install
9. sudo reboot

After that configured and scanned for channels. Signal level spanned by 34% to 43% while s/n ratio was no less than 98.
Subsequent tuning revealed some artefacts but consistently less than old patch was applied and rarely glitch (I hope is the right term) on audio.
I am pretty satisfied on that.

Compliments you did a really good work!
