    Hi there my TV keeps Freezing and for the life of me no setting I've tried changes anything. I have attached a log from a 2sec start up where it froze straight away. Please help it my main HTPC that the family use.

    If yr TV is freezing, it means that the signals from original source, eg Satellite, tv aerial, etc
    Is not
    1- connection properly
    2- cables r loose
    3- signal from all sources eg internet ,tv aerials are coming 100%
    A times when downloading speed is under 2mbps , then the signals will freeze
    Or come n go

    Yeah, your signal quality looks like it has been compromised:
    [2015-03-19 18:17:59,205] [Log ] [7 ] [INFO ] - ***** SIGNAL LEVEL: 64, SIGNAL QUALITY: 29 *****

    TeVii tuner signal strength and quality readings are percentages between 0 and 100, so 29 is not good.
    There are corresponding continuity errors in the TsWriter log.
    Please check your dish alignment, LNB condition and skew, and cabling terminations. :)

    10m? Seems unlikely. It really would have to be blocking the line of sight.
    How long has the problem been affecting you?
    If you're in the right part of the country I'd be wondering if the winds from cyclone Pam moved your dish. It doesn't take much...

    It's been getting worse over time, pretty sure now it's the tree it is right in its path. 10m infront.

    Well, I guess you could try pruning the tree on the weekend or something. Good luck! :)

    Thanks it was the dish someone didn't do up the base bolts. Signal level about 70% and signal quality about 90% now, so I'm back in the good books.

    I have looked at your log files, but as usual they are unintelligible gobbledegook. (I am sure that the original developers who wrote that code know what the log entries mean, but those developers have long since retired from the MP team.) I regret to say that I think that you will have to use the "brute force" method to track down...

    MP1 MP2 Odd Standby issue DE
    Since I played around with all the settings as per the previous posts and despite putting everything back to how it was, as far as I can tell, now when my HTPC wakes up to make a recording it no longer does so in away mode. I will probably do a restore from a backup in the hope that that will resolve the issue.:mad:

    @CyberSimian As I have just posted in the MP2 subforum I will stay with MP1 for the time being. Many thanks for all your very informative and detailed responses. I will take your advice and monitor the Scheduled recordings list for the discrepancies you have described. Cheers.
