I was originally using the latest official release with the update (version 0.2.0.4 I believe) and when I would change channels on my ATSC card MP would crash.

I then tried the latest nightly build, which for me was:
MediaPortal-svn--09-04-2006--00-58-Rev10134

It would no longer crash when changing channels with my ATSC card.

I have attached a zip file of the .NET Log entry from the Event Viewer and my MP.log from the time of testing. THe MP.log seems to have a few instances of my launching MP in it my apologies for not knowing which instance contained the crash.

I might have spoke to soon about the crash being resolved.
Instead of crashing on the first channel change it took a few more but did crash.
A quick comparison of the fault address in mpsa.ax shows only a difference of 10
(0x00001235 vs 0x00001245) which given proximity to the fault address from the same version I'm attributing to the same bug.

Thus far I have had timeshifting turned on. I'm going to turn it off and see if I can still reproduce the bug.

Attached is the MP TestTool output.

    2. To to My TV
    3. Recording is in progress on analog channel
    4. Disabled Timeshifting
    5. Click on TV Guide
    6. Changed to ATSC channel 2-1, 4-1, 7-1
    7. Viewing of these channels was very jittery/jumpy. Not even worth watching
    8. Hard drive activty was minimal (Single 500GB disk installed)

    10. Click Close and ran Step 2 of the TestTool.

    This is VERY reproducable.
