[QUOTE="djmarzel, post: 60914, member: 20327"] I don't hear the "disconnect"-sound when the problem occurs. When you're watching TV I can "see"the problem comming closer because then the TV is getting stuttering and when you try to change channel at that point, Mediaportal crashes (hangs). Or when the machine is left doing nothing for a while (basis screen or radio) and you try to turn om TV, same problem. Not always, but often ( 2 till 5 times a day). When Mediaportal hangs, I can push ALF-F4 to close the application and I'm back at the Windows Desktop. Restarting Mediaportal doens't work. I just did a small test when the problem occured... I closed Mediaportal and tried to re-install the BDA-driver. But the Setup-application also hangs at the installing-point. If I unplug and plug the firewire-cable I do hear the connect-sound from Windows, so something get's detected... Maybe it has something to do with the use of the driver within Mediaportal ? Like the device has to be reset or something? The only way to watch TV again is turning off PC completely. Even standby doesn't work. I installed all Windows-patches (also using MS-update). I manually installed the Firewire and the DVB patches. Tried to contact the dealer for some info, but they say they dont support Mediaportal. Maybe an idea to install MyTheatre just for testing?
