You have only provided TV Server logs though, so the problem could be in MediaPortal or TsReader and we wouldn't know. If the issue is with encoders or codecs then there would be no errors in the log at all. You would have to connect to the MediaPortal graph to see what audio codec is being used and to check that it is passing audio to the audio renderer (soundcard). This would tell you whether the issue is with the encoder not passing audio to the timeshift file (unlikely, since audio is present in Eurosport 2) or with the codec not passing audio from the timeshift file to the soundcard.If the issue is with the encoder then you could:1. Try other encoders, although these are hard to find.2. Buy a new TV card with hardware encoding.3. Try restarting TV Server so the graph is rebuilt.If the issue is with codecs (decoders) then you could:1. Try other audio codecs (FFDShow, Intervideo, Cyberlink etc.). Some people might recommend SAF (search the forum for this).2. Update AC3Filter.Sometimes it is a matter of "trial and error" with codecs and encoders <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite3" alt=":(" title="Frown    :(" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":(" />I use the Cyberlink codecs.Was anything else running besides MediaPortal and uTorrent? Anti virus software? Firewall? Blue screen is usually only caused by driver or hardware problems (overheating, overclocking, bad memory modules etc.). To be completely honest with you, I don't feel able to help you with this problem. I think it is very unlikely that it is caused by MediaPortal. The best thing I can recommend for you is:1. Make sure you're using the most up-to-date drivers for your motherboard, video card, TV tuner, sound card and other hardware.2. Check the event log for errors.3. Run Memtest to check your memory modules are okay.4. If the blue screen occurs again then write down the message so you know what is causing it and Google for a solution.To give you time to write down the message, do the following:1. Right Click on “My Computer”.2. Click “properties”.3. Go to the “advanced” tab.4. Click the “settings” button under the headline “startup and recovery”.5. Untick the “automatically restart” box then click OK.This is good, however you didn't clarify what you mean by "lagging".- It could be that the CPU is running at 100% because of other applications which would slow down the video encoding/decoding.- It could be an encoder issue - this is a common problem for software encoders. Sometimes pausing and unpausing, or stopping and restarting the channel will fix it. A more "general" solution would be to try different encoders. You could also try restarting TV Server.Like I said above, the BSOD issues are most likely caused by hardware problems which are outside of the control of MediaPortal. If MediaPortal is causing the problem (unlikely) then it is a different story. I could spend hours trying to solve this and get nowhere. I'm sorry but I just don't have that time available to me...I notice that you are allowing your TV Server to hibernate/sleep. Have you tried restarting the TV Service rather than restarting the entire computer?By "video" do you mean "TV" in the Behold TV application, or just recorded video in some other application?You can only use the tuner in one program at a time. Also, using the tuner in another application may upset TV Server when you try and watch/record TV in MP again.What was the CPU usage like with MP and video going?</blockquote>
