I am experiencing a problem with the TsWriter.ax:

I can watch "normal" programs without problems, also programs with multiple audio streams seam to work.

But I just tried to watch a movie on a program which has 7 audio channels. The TV-Service crashes after a few minutes (I never saw the service itself crash before). Windows event service displays following error:

Fehlgeschlagene Anwendung TvService.exe, Version 1.0.0.16589, fehlgeschlagenes Modul TsWriter.ax, Version 0.0.0.0, Fehleradresse 0x0000c451.

"Failed application TvService.exe, Version 1.0.0.16589, failed module TsWriter.ax, Version 0.0.0.0, erroradress 0x0000c451."


MediaPortal logs didn't say much about the error, the application just crashed. I attached "streaming server.Log" and "TsReader.log" though. I also attached a sample of the stream I watched.

Can you record the program material with the seven audio channels in the TS format and does it then playback OK. within MP.

ie avoiding TIMESHIFITNG.

I will try to reproduce this. Will be hard though since there are not many 7 channel audio programs on the respective TV-channel.

I tried to record a 10 channel audio movie on the same channel the error occured first but playback did not show any video (audio only) so I don't know whether it worked at all.

I tried to watch another of these multi-channel audio programs but when I started TV it didn't even start playback but locked up MediaPortal instantly.
When I first tune into another channel and then switch to the buggy program it sometimes works... sometimes it doesn't.
When I try to switch to the AC3 audio channel video playback begins stuttering and no sound is played anymore.

Recording seems to work but it doesn't include video, some audio fragments are in there. I tested this excerpt with gSpot which came up with a hilarious amount of 14 audio streams. Another try to record this specific program showed 17 audio streams.

I am attaching logs from my try to tune into the program within MediaPortal...
