I found the problem.
I was specifying 5/6 in the channel parameters (can´t remember how it is called) instead of auto but the truth is that it is 5/6 as per http://en.kingofsat.net/tv-19.2E.php
Now I have a different problem, HD channels consume between 81% and 93% of CPU so pixelation occurs and audio drops at intervals as the system is basicall y choking at 1080p with encrypted HD channels. I am uxing:
ABIT A78-HD motherboard (with HDMI output for audio and video) latest OSS driver as Alsa never did output audio over HDMI with my motherboard. And this motherboard has a built-in NVIDIA 8200 which I am assigning 256MBs of RAM to (have a total of 2 Gigs of RAM and 2 gigs of Swap space)
In Xine using vidix for video driver and getodelay for audio.oss_sync metho d. Is there something I can change to try to help with the HD channels?

Of course, go for vdpau. A big theme in the German vdr-portal.de. I use it only with SDTV with 5-10% CPU on an 8200 powered mainboard. HDTV users talk about 10-15% CPU with some low power AMD CPUs.
