[QUOTE="gperkinson, post: 690404, member: 83961"] Hi All Fellow Kiwi's, I have had recently issues with MP V 1.1.2.0 and 1.1.1.0 where MP randomly freezes up when either swapping from TV to recordings or swapping between TVNZ and MediaWorks channels - the only way I can get out of Media Portal is to cold boot the PC - Alt F4 would not even kill it off!! The issue then is that if I'm recording something, my mirror disks go flat out for 10 minutes until the desktop appears where I can then kill the "repair" process. So does anyone else have this issue? Is there a way other than a cold boot to kill MP? Also, in V 1.1.1.0, there was a reported memory leak which I thought caused this and was fixed in V 1.1.2.0. I'm also getting delayed speech, stuttering & blurring during fast motion depending on the channel and channel recording. I have also read a few posts back that the "Prefer AC3" tickbox can help things, especially TV3. I'm using SAF4 codecs, V 1.1.2.0 and I'm on Vista 32 Home Premium SP2. I have a NOVA 500-T TV Tuner Card. I have also never re-installed Vista and have had my PC for a couple of years now. Any help appreciated.
