Well having used the MPC Gabest MPEG-2 decoder for a few days now, I'm fairly confident that it's solved the crashing problem.
I actually re-arranged my room to put the PC nearer the aerial socket, so that I could use a shorter lead. I actually had worse signal problems than before, but it turned out to be the shorter aerial lead was a cheap, poorly shielded one. Now that I've swapped it out, things are much better. However, even when the signal was really bad I still didn't have any crashes with this decoder.
When scanning I'm still getting No Signal on 4tp, which seems to be where BBC4 and all the BBC radio stations reside, so I guess I'll have to ask my landlord to have a look at the aerial.
Not sure if the logs will tell you anything, but I've attached them anyway. Is there anything I can do now to stop my system crashing when using DXVA decoders? I might give the Nvidia one a go as I recall that it did a better job of handling strange aspect ratios than the Cyberlink one anyway, but if the problem is with DXVA I imagine both decoders will have problems.
Then again, from my CPU usage I'm not sure that the DXVA decoders are actually offloading much, so maybe I can just disable DXVA to stop them crashing.
