    I recorded 12 minutes 37 secs of a movie with interesting results - Mediainfo tells me it's only 9.425 seconds long (and 475 MB). VLC, MPC-BE and PowerDVD play it correctly for the full 12 minutes 37 secs, but Mediaportal just stops playing a few seconds in (but is still responsive), and both Windows Media Player and Films&TV play correctly for a few seconds, and then playback speeds up as if being fast forwarded for the rest of the recording. Hope this helps ;-)

    Can you upload/attach a shorter sample recording please (2-3 minutes would be fine)?

    I can confirm the sample doesn't play properly. I suspect the stream timestamps are messed up (or TsReader is having some issue parsing the stream).

    Can you repeat the recording test and attach the TV Server logs please - I'd like to see what TV server thinks of the stream as it's recording it.

    Not yet - I've been working on another problem, so not had time to investigate it much - other than confirming your findings. You'll have to be patient...it looks like it's the player/client end of things, not TV Server.

    It's getting weirder..... If I remove all the IP cards in the TVServer setup and then add them back I can scan the M3u and tune the stations but if I rescan it on the same card it just keeps updating the 1 channel. My brain is melting.........

    To other people reading about this 'issue', Doskabouter provided me with a fix/patch. It is a modified version of tswriter.ax which solved the problem with dolby digital plus audio. I want to thank Doskabouter for all his time and energy he put into resolving this!!

    Interesting. :coffee: I always have DVB subtitles enabled in "MP Config", but I actually switch on subtitles only for those films that have deafening sound effects and music, combined with inaudible dialogue. I have never noticed the problem that you have described, but I also use the EVR renderer, and not the Madvr renderer. So...

    So, you're power cycling the TV, but not putting the PC to sleep ? In General => Startup/Resume settings, try checking "Ignore Windows resolution/size changes" In Codecs and Render, try selecting the specific audio device rather than "Default DirectSound device" Just ideas, no guarantee this will do anything. If this doesn't work, I...
