I'm hoping someone here can help me. I've been running MP for about a year now and I have had this problem since the outset. When watching TV all channels work perfectly except for BBC1 HD.
When watching, the picture will freeze and the only way to get things moving again is to either stop the playback and re-select the channel or tune to another channel and immediately back to BBC1 HD. To be clear on this, the system remains stable and MP remains responsive.
When doing either of these things the channel will behave itself for as long as you stay tuned to the channel. If you watch something on another channel for any length of time then go back to BBC1 HD the picture will freeze again. I can live with this but it means recording something on BBC1 HD is impossible.
Sometimes it will go for 30 minutes+ before freezing and other times it will freeze within a minute. I have even had it play the channel for several hours before freezing.
I have tried lots of different codecs with all sorts of different settings on the codec options screens. Codecs I have tried are- LAV Video Decoder, CoreAVC, ffdshow DXVA Video Decoder, ffdshow Video Decoder, Microsoft DTV-DVD Decoder and others. Nothing seems to make any difference to the problem, some codecs make it worse.
I hope i've included all relevant information but happy to go over anything if unclear.
Thanks in advance..
