[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1295330, member: 141969"] This line from the log file shows that TV Server detected something at that frequency (signal strength=75), but was unable to extract anything meaningful from it (quality=0). A signal strength of 75 does not seem unreasonable to me. However, I have just checked my HTPC receiving "BBC2 HD", and MP shows strength=98 and quality=69 using a TBS 6284 tuner card. My Sony TV shows strength=97 and quality=100 (but measures of strength and quality between different manufacturers products are not directly comparable). For DVB-T MUXes, I have on occasion seen lower values for strength using the TBS tuner (50-60), whilst still receiving a watchable picture in MP. I am sorry, but I do not have an explanation for your problem. My [i]guess[/i] is that it is related to the maintenance that the Mendip transmitter is undergoing at the moment. If true, your system should return to normal in a few days. If the problem persists... well, I don't know. It is possible that your tuner card has developed a fault in the DVB-T2 circuitry, but the only way to check that would be to replace it (and the replacement might suffer the same problem if it is a signal problem and not a tuner problem). I don't think that re-installing MP would help. And since it seems to be a signal or tuner problem of some sort, I don't think that trying other software would help. :( -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
