    He Mpeeps,

    When i watch a video, mkv,dvd or something. And i switch over to livetv directly. I get a black screen, with sound
    I can solve this, by stopping livetv and start again.

    Thanks in advance

    Try running with the 'Don't drop discontinued packets.....' box in MP config not ticked - like it is here -> TV Client - MediaPortal Wiki <- (not ticked is the standard setting, which is more robust/stable with most video decoders)

    If that doesn't help, try the latest experimental TsReader version -> here <-

    Hi Tony,

    I will try it later on today.
    But about the other tsreader version... I using already a different one. Because of my problems with sound. Switching from ac to cpm. You suggested me to use a special tsreader.

    He Tony,

    I tried the latest tsreader from the link. But that gives me other problems. When i switching channels,. The picture is delayed. Audio is switching instantly, but picture is freezing for a few secs and then turning to new channel:confused:

    Can you post the logs please (using TsReader v44) ?

    Does it fix the black screen when you switch to TV ?

    I can see what's happening from the logs, there is a huge - 10s - jump into the future in the sample timestamps reaching evr presenter (see evr.log) which is why the video doesn't start for a while - it's waiting for the correct time to arrive - but there's no real clue why.....

    When did these problems start happening ?

    Did you have the problems (the AC3/PCM sound, and black screens) with older versions of MP (1.2.1 or earlier) ?

    There is something weird going on in your system, but I've no idea what....
