Set the default timestrech for MythTV

Having upgraded MythTV, the new timestretch feature defaults to 1.0x, which isn’t what I want. Here’s how to fix that:

From a shell prompt:

mysql -u mythtv -p mythconverg;

Where ‘mythtv’ is the username used to access the database. It will prompt you for a password. After typing in the password successfully, type the following command at the mysql prompt:

update record set tsdefault = 1.1;

That’s it!

EDIT: Hmmm maybe not.  There is also a timescale column in the recorded table:

update recorded set timescale = 1.1;
