[QUOTE="snarlyboy, post: 496871, member: 22574"] After MANY months... I finally found the (or at least most of the) problem. For me in Auckland, NZ - I was getting crashes in MP 1.02 as above on the HD digital channels of TV3 C4 and a few others. All Analog channels worked fine. Only the digital channels of TV1 and TV2 worked fine in MP. Everyone had me convinced that my codecs or drivers were to blame and I thought so too as no matter what Cyberlink or ATI driver I found something would go kablooey on just those channels and I found out they are being broadcast differently (in 1080i I think not 1080p) than the ones that worked. And I had NO reason to suspect my antenna as the TV Server app said all signals were strong and everything was ok. Well, a really bad wind storm the other day knocked over our antenna (but was still connected and worked) and so we had it replaced with a new one and lo' and behold most all of the channels work now. TV3 works fine now in HD. So my advice is even if it looks and walks and quacks like a codec or driver issue folks - it may not be. Check your antenna and replace it if need be. :) [/QUOTE]
