Like I tried to explain: the chirps and volume changes are unavoidable effects of the audio decoder (codec) and/or renderer encountering corruption in the stream. Garbage in, garbage out. If you want to solve this problem, you must find and eliminate the source of your corruption.A crash is simply a more severe effect of corruption. In the same way that we can't avoid chirps, volume changes and pixelation, we also can't avoid crashes. Believe me: we would if we could, but it isn't something that's within our control. Also, this is not just a MediaPortal thing. Any and all software that relies on codecs will be susceptible to these effects in the presence of corruption. Codecs that are well designed and/or carefully coded will be less prone to cause these things... but again, ultimately the only sure solution is to avoid introducing corruption in the first place.To be clear: I didn't say that the cause was your TV signal. I simply said it is one potential cause.If the cause is poor TV signal strength/quality and you are not able to improve the situation, then you will have to put up with the effects.Odd setup. Who is your provider? ...or in other words, where does the signal in the fibre optic cable come from?The fibre optic to RF converter and house cabling are not immune to problems such as interference. There is also such a thing as signal that is too strong....but again, I want to emphasize that I did not and am not saying that your signal strength/quality is the problem. That is something that needs to be investigated and confirmed.It won't.</blockquote>
