[QUOTE="RobNorthcott, post: 1287067, member: 57999"] OK, had the machine apart and reseated everything. I'm convinced it's not a problem with the tuner now because exactly the same thing happens with the USB DVB-T tuner as with the PCIe DVB-S. All tuners can run a channel scan but fail to start graph when trying to watch or record anything. I've also got a separate EPG grabbing program that uses the DVB-S tuner and that still works fine. Another odd thing I've just noticed is that MP can't delete recordings anymore. It looks like it's the tvservice that does that, and the log just says "could not delete recording" (logs attached in case anybody can see anything else I've missed). The tvservice is running as the normal Windows user (same as I log into the machine with), which is an administrator and has full access to the recordings drive (just a local SSD). I tried giving all users full rights to the directory just in case but that made no difference. I can delete files through Windows (which should be the same user as MP and tvservice are using). I suspect this is probably related to the "start graph" problem if there's some weird user rights stuff going on. MP is able to play back recordings and videos fine, just not from the tuners. I've tried moving the timeshift directory onto another drive (it's normally on a RAM disk) but that didn't help either. Anybody got any more ideas? [/QUOTE]
